Set in Switzerland in the immediate aftermath of World War Two, Labyrinth Of Peace delves into the murky connections between business, finance and Nazism.
There are three main plot strands that entwine through this six part mini series. The first concerns Johann (Max Hubacher) marrying into the Tobler garment business. He takes over the day to day running of the company from his ailing father in law Alfred Tobler (Urs Bosshardt). His desire to modernise the factory and be a good employer are in conflict with the economic realities of demilitarisation.
The newlywed Klara (Annina Walt) trying to help Jewish orphans makes up the second. She volunteers at a Red Cross facility that houses children rescued from a Nazi death camp. Here she runs into bureaucracy, apathy and antisemitism. Things become complicated by her growing friendship with Herschel (Jan Hrynkiewicz), one of the survivors.
Finally Johann's brother Egon (Dimitri Stapfer) has returned from.

During dinner at Il Gattopardo across the street from the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Corpus Christi (Boze Cialo) director Jan Komasa told me that he is a “big fan” of Andrey Zvyagintsev and his films Loveless and Leviathan. Jan’s composers Evgueni Galperine and Sacha Galperine also scored François Ozon's By The Grace Of God and Barry Levinson’s The Wizard Of Lies, starring Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer with Alessandro Nivola on the Bernie Madoff scandal.
Jan Komasa on Bartosz Bielenia: “In Warsaw now he is part of Krzysztof Warlikowski, very renowned European theatre director - he is part of his troupe.”
