SYNOPSIS
Marcin, a high school graduate from Warsaw, discovers that his father leads a double life. This respected doctor, a workaholic constantly traveling for work, actually has a second family. The boy, who looked up to his father, is devastated, failing school, and distancing himself from his family, especially when he realizes that his mother has been consciously and long ago agreeing to an arrangement with him. Marcin gradually delves into the life of the second family to understand his father's motives and methods. He meets his brother and sister, with whom he flirts. He himself changes: he begins to manipulate others and use them to his own ends. Anger grows within him, because he feels that the second family is better, more genuine, and more formal. He wants justice and truth. Finally, in front of his siblings, he decides to confront his father.
