Rooted in actual events in Cold War Poland the multi-award winning Doppleganger has much contemporary relevance, exploring identity theft and how international politics affect the lives of ordinary people.

A stylish, keenly observed psychological thriller set in the world of espionage it unfolds simultaneously on both sides of the Iron Curtain: Hans (Gierszał) enjoys the freedoms of 80s Strasbourg whilst Jan (Schuchardt) fights for a Free Poland in the dark days of martial law. Holoubek (previously acclaimed for 25 Years of Innocence) has us on the edge of our seats as we slowly understand the connections between the two men.
