Poland, 1949. Zula is bold and brilliant, a singer who ignites the stage. Wiktor is withdrawn and damaged, a composer longing to write. Irresistibly drawn to each other, they dream of escape. But in communist-controlled Poland that can be a dangerous thing. Based on Pawel Pawlikowski's Academy Award-nominated film, Cold War is an epic love story spanning the decades and breadth of Europe at its most divided.
