Coming of Age Drama in rural Poland in the summer of 1943.

The plot of the film is based on two parallel stories about two women (Anna and Em) that seem to be unbound in any way. But as the story goes, it occures that even though the two women do not meet, they are strongly connected not only in real life but in the spiritual realm. They are both lonely, they live their inner lives and eventually their paths cross but in a very unusual way. It changes the young woman, Em and brings her to a new attitude towards life.

Inez is a young, aspiring journalist who dreams of love and a job at a prestigious publishing house. Once she gets to the paradise of her dreams, problems will start to multiply. What's more, two handsome men will appear at her side. Both mysterious and unpredictable.

Poland in the 80’s was a country ruled by crisis and a sense of hopelessness. Only few knew how to turn crisis into a business. It was a golden time for them. How did they know what would bring them money? How did they operate in a country where almost everything was forbidden?

The true story of Polish fortunes and the story of the heroes from the first part has its colorful continuation. Can business friends continue to trust each other when even more money is at stake? How were state-owned companies privatized, garnering millions into private pockets? Who was pulling the strings in free Poland? Even more mysteries. Human weaknesses.

Tired of just scraping by, an ambitious janitor scams and schemes his way to the good life in 1980s Poland amid changing regimes and personal chaos.
