Amid a tense political climate, the opposition leader is killed in an apparent accident. When a prosecutor smells a cover-up, witnesses get targeted. A thinly veiled dramatization of the assassination of Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis and its aftermath, "Z" captures the outrage at the US-backed junta that ruled Greece at the time of its release.
Z has generally received very positive reviews.
