A Russian man, desperate to save his dignity, is given an impossible moral choice after he is accused of collaboration with the Nazis.

Critics Consensus

While it treads familiar narrative ground -- and is a mite predictable at times -- In the Fog proves a smart, thought-provoking antidote to Hollywood action movies.

The intellectual range is vast, and the images and performances stirring beyond the customary standard. In its thorough meditation on man's moral place, and its beautiful depiction of one version of life's trial, lies this film's joy.

3/4

As remorseless in style as it is in message, "In the Fog" offers little hope and few pleasures, but earns admiration for its elegant exploration of the lowest depths of the human condition.

3.5/5

Intimate in the telling, sweeping in the implications, Loznitsa has created an unusually incisive film.

4/5

In the Fog certainly demands your full attention throughout its two-hour runtime. Yet, for those willing to put in the legwork, the rewards are bountiful.

In an era when vague is en vogue-when filmmakers are more likely to find acclaim for posing big questions than for trying to answer them-In the Fog stands out for being resoundingly unambiguous.

This is not a Soviet fairy-tale of the "glorious victory", this is a gloomy and grim exploration of human behavior during wartime, the ever-present suspicion here and now. The movie gets into details about these things, it doesn't abstract the war-time period with battles and rapidly changing places; it doesn't glorify nor denigrate anybody either. A powerfully shot and acted drama.
