Wikipedia article
'Mother Teresa of Cats' is a Polish drama film directed by Pawe Sala. The premiere was held on 6 July 2010 at the 45th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Czech Republic and on 17 September 2010 in Poland.
Plot
A shocking record of a crime committed by two young boys (12 and 22 years old), committing the murder of their own mother. The film shows a period of 12 months before their arrest, especially the last few days and the time of the investigation until arrested by the Police. The author does not focus on the sensational theme, but tries to focus on the psychological layer, recreating the atmosphere of the family home, psychological portraits of the brothers and their mother the future victim. In the background we see the environment in which this thoroughly ordinary, modest family lived. There was no indication that there would be a tragedy. There will be no cruelty or brutal literality in this film, yet the author does not resign from the artistic means of sensational and criminal cinema. The film's script is based on facts.
