SYNOPSIS:
Acclaimed historian Jan T. Gross becomes a lightning rod in Poland’s reckoning with the past when he reveals that the 1941 Jedwabne pogrom—long blamed on Nazis—was carried out by local residents. His findings spark political backlash and a culture war, as scholars challenge decades of silence, denial, and sanitized history against a state determined to defend its heroic national narrative
