In this gripping final work from Warsaw’s Documentary Film Studio, "Blekitny krzyz" chronicles the daring rescue mission of the Voluntary Tatra Mountain Rescue Service as they navigate perilous terrain to save comrades trapped behind enemy lines amid WWII chaos. Blurring documentary and narrative, it’s a poignant homage to courage and camaraderie.
