Amidst a heated political climate the opposition leader is killed in what appears to be a traffic accident. When a magistrate finds evidence of a government cover-up witnesses start to get targeted. A thinly-fictionalized account of the events surrounding the assassination of Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis in 1963 Z captures the outrage about the military junta that ruled Greece at the time.
