After a teacher dies, his best friend — a former cop — takes a job at the school where he worked to confront the gang he thinks was responsible.

After years of forced labor in the Gulag, Jerzy returns home to his waiting wife and young daughter. Though life appears to return to normal, traumatic memories continue to haunt him, blurring the line between dreams and reality.

The film won the Golden Tadpole at the 2000 Camerimage Festival in Toruń.
