Z

Overview

Set against a backdrop of political unrest, the assassination of an opposition leader is initially deemed an accident. However, a vigilant prosecutor suspects foul play, leading to the intimidation of witnesses. This film serves as a thinly disguised retelling of the assassination of Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis and the subsequent fallout, poignantly reflecting the public’s fury towards the US-supported military regime that governed Greece during its release. "Z" powerfully embodies the struggle for truth amid a climate of fear and corruption.
