Rendes-Vous with a Spy

(Spotkanie ze szpiegiem)


1964   >   action/ spy

A gripping spy film in which the action-packed plot was used as a means to spread communist propaganda.

A well told story set deeply in the reality of communist Poland. The high level of authenticity was achieved thanks to cooperation with the Interior Ministry, the Military University of Technology in Warsaw and the Defense Ministry.

Ruthless spy Bernard arrives in Poland and establishes cooperation with two deep undercover agents. He uses wireless operators without them knowing it to contact his superiors. The Security Service gets on his trail. Its officers begin a thorough investigation and gradually find out all they need about their opponent. They manage to prevent his escape to the West, but it costs one of them his life.
