We'll Be Fine poster
4.5

When, despite being in your thirties, you are still living with your parents. When you're short of cash, your girlfriends aren't getting along, and your life increasingly tastes of cheap discount beer - then you recognize that it's high time to finally change something. Such conclusions are reached in unison by Albert, Marcin and Jacek - three buddies from the housing estate, who, after a series of business disasters, finally come up with an idea on how to make a nice profit. Thus is born a plan for a daring plot that will lead the heroes into the middle of a big wedding, where not only money, but also a chance for a hot romance awaits them. Along the way, all they have to do is not to spoil anything. And with that, as we all know, things can vary. Sometimes it's easier said than done to do something yourself.
