Synopsis
Based on the lambrakis affair, as it was ficionalizes in the novel Z written by Greek exile Vassili Vassilikos, this is the story of how a political assassination was disguised as an accident. "Costa-Gavra's extroadrinary thriller - one of the fastest, most exciting melodramas ever made - was based on contemporary events in Greece. The picture never loses emotional contact with the audience; it derives from the tradition of the American gangster movies and prison pictures and anti-Fascit melodrams of the 40s." - Pauline Kael
