Movie Haiku:Few films disappoint us more that a poorly told version of a really important historical episode. The murder of Polish officers by the Red Army early in WWII is essential information for anyone interested in the Holocaust, but ill-define characters jumped from crisis to crisis here with no logical connection between incidents. Too bad!
