Congratulations to Katyn on being nominated in the Best Foreign Film category at this years Oscars. Katyn, directed by Andrzej Wajda tells the account of the events surrounding the 1940 massacre of captured Polish army officers in the Katyn Forest focuses on the story of a captain and his wife, who refuses to believe he is dead. A gesture of friendship within the harsh confines of the prison camp where Andrzej and his fellow officers are held will result in the mistaken identification that helps keep his wife's hopes alive. www.oscars.com
