Who's there?

Who's there?

Ah, it's you.

Yep, believe it or not.

Why have you come here?

To you. Back home.

To me?

- Back home?
- Yep.

Believe it or not, but I've
finally understood what home is.

I've changed, haven't I?

Until the next tour?

Nope. I'm done with it.

Once you've fallen into habit,
you'll never get away from it.

It's a pity that it took me...
so long to understand it.

- This is my home.
- This was your home.

As far as this is concerned,
nothing has changed.

Nothing?

I've changed.

You look great.

Give me a break.

I've changed.

The house has changed.

The garden has changed.

- Everything has changed.
- The hedge has grown very well.

Itself.

The greenhouse also built itself.

And this all decided to meet here.

Just like that.

To wait for you.

Yep, I do see it and I do appreciate.

You have not wasted the time.

In fact, I've always believed in you.

Believed?

You believed that I would wait for you,

run your errands, sleep in my bed alone
like a nun until you show up again?

Frankly, yes.

This is exactly what I believed in.

Then you are stupid, old man.

Despite all the wit, or even wisdom.

You used to be a personification
of wisdom to me, almost divine.

You are stupid!

You really believed?

That you would leave a wild one like
me with house ownership, only to avoid

forfeiture, get locked up for five years
and come back here as if nothing

happened? You really believed in it?

You should have a good, old, kind wife.

But I'm no good, old, kind wife.
You've always wanted me to be like this.

Your school.

Yet, I'm not a bitch either.

Call Krzysztof tomorrow.
He is my attorney now.

He is going to pay you half of the
value of the house,

including the part I built
while you were away.

This should suffice for starters.

You are so gifted.

I'm done with it. Don't you believe me?

You'll have a chance
to start all over again.

Yep, you've played rough
and you do look pretty, I mean it.

Thanks.

I wish I could say the same about you.

They cut your hair.

BIG SHAR

I will miss you.

- Don't let the plants die of thirst.
- What if I die of longing for you?

Be safe and don't worry.

Be good.

- I'll think about it...
- Think about it?

Think about me, because if
I die of longing,

- your geraniums will die of thirst.
- Hey, you!

LUTYŃ

Need a ride?

- Here you are.
- Thank you very much.

- Is the stake big?
- You better follow the round.

You'll win it back.

- I raise.
- You'll save up a lot of gas.

- Where to?
- The Gardening Cooperative.

But no-one's there at this hour.

It's so late? Let's go
to the hotel, then.

Off we go.

He fancies a house for his daughter,
and he will buy it for peanuts.

You are going to
Mariańska Street 2, right?

How can you tell?

You mentioned the gardening cooperative,
and the auction is tomorrow.

He shot a man while hunting
and got away with it.

If he goes to an auction,
he will probably win.

Mikun?

Yep, yep.

And for the record, who
is this Mikun anyway?

You'll see. A confectioner
who lives off the gullible.

You know, a gambler,
a prominent figure.

So, to Mariańska or to the hotel?

We'll go to Mariańska.

His confectionery is right behind you.

- Modest.
- Modest?

I'm Mikun.

Nice house.

This one is mine.
That one goes for the auction.

No-one's inside. I can show you around.

If you would be so kind.

- From Warsaw?
- Yes.

No need coming here,
this house will be mine.

To stay here for good?

There are only three things to
do here. This, hussies and cards.

Without them, you would go crazy.

There you see, the meter is running.

Yeah, yeah, this, this and the cards.

Do you play?

No.

Cards and gambling
in general are something terrible.

Whatever... Forty-seven.

Here you are.

- Now, the change...
- No, no, thank you.

You've been very kind.

Thank you.

I told you that the
house is a lost cause.

We'll see about it
tomorrow at the auction.

Excuse me, how can I
get to Wrocław from here?

To Wrocław

It's better to go with
some coaching pilgrims.

Or you can go to Katy and change there.

- Why, are you leaving?
- Yes.

The hotel day hasn't started.

It doesn't matter.
Please, charge me for the night.

I think so.

Ms Halinka, I'm glad to see
you, please, unlock the room.

You'll find this interesting.

- What is it?
- The auction has been cancelled.

Life.

Thank you.

It has been postponed due to
formal construction inspections.

Who is this president?

Franciscan Korzen.

He's entered the billiard
room with Mr Mikun.

If you vacate the room
now, I can cancel the bill.

No.

I've decided to stay
until tomorrow after all.

Three.

Well, well, bravo.

You wanted to win against me?

Here?

The game is still on.

Go on.

Four.

Your turn, sir.

Cheers, Napoleon!

Thanks, in a minute.

One.

- Damn it!
- It happens even to the best players.

Five.

Down the pocket.

One more?

- I'm sorry, but we are really closing.
- Alright, we are leaving.

Two thousand five hundred.

- It's no money.
- Well, you know...

- The change, sir.
- Thank you.

Here you are.

It's impolite to outplay a guest.

Well, it happens.

What if I suggested a manlier game?

Chess?

Of course.

Poker.

A very rough version.

Oh, no... But I could try blackjack.

How come?

You know, blackjack, the twenty-one.

Blackjack?

Blackjack then!

Very good game!
Mr President?

Let's get down to business!

You must be bored at nights.

And what do you care?
Professional secret.

Here, in his ID, it says: 'Occupation:
liberal profession', maybe some writer?

- What is this all about?
- Oh, looking for a theme of his life.

Maybe a writer indeed.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

- Gonna play poker?
- You'd like to?

No poker, but we're gonna have
some fun with the four dames.

- Only poker on your mind?
- Isn't it for everyone?

You're too thin between the ears.

Put some dollars aside, and
we'll sit at one card table together.

Will you pick him up from my place?

- Say, at twelve?
- No, no, twelve appears too late.

Make it two.

This boy is crazy about cards.

He even has some talent.

He shuffles with his pals.

Let's check him out then.
Simply play against him.

And what would be the stake?

His wife teaches my daughter.
What's the need?

Right. Mr Mikun, I don't want to be
a spoilsport, but we've been drinking.

Here? Here, we are at home.

We do have the taxi at our disposal.

Get in.

I've lived here for twenty years.

Ten.

Excuse me, how
much is there at the pot?

Wait a sec, thirty, forty, ten...
fifty thousand.

Right.

I must have gone crazy, I hit all.

- You've given me two cards.
- How come?!

I don't know, you've given me two.

Your mistake.

He either wins or you
have to transfer the pot.

He didn't win! No way!
All I can do is transfer the pot.

We need to change the deck.
This one is greasy.

If you say so, let it be so.

Here you are.

Stuck, you are saying.

How much is at stake?

- Two hundred eighty thousand.
- Yep.

Just a second.

The winner takes it all, Mr Attorney.

Two hundred and fifty.

If you win, I will be left with thirty.

Ten.

You will be left with twenty.

Please.

Yours.

Table's.

Fourteen.

It would be impolite
to outplay the host.

Enough.

Enough?

I've lost.

I've got thirteen.

How did it happen?

You know, actually
I did not really want to.

May I?

Calm down.

The door was open, Mr Stefan.

Am I not too early?

Alright, alright.

We deserve a rematch.

- Naturally.
- Tomorrow.

Very well.

So, tomorrow, at 5 p.m. at my place.

Ah, thank you.

I am at your disposal.
Good night, sir.

I do hope you will not be trying
to leave without saying good-bye.

Good night.

So, you've won a home.

An accident. I did not expect it.

It's only money.

If the auction wasn't cancelled,
you could buy a home.

There's always an 'if'.

- Keep it.
- Thank you.

I once thought I could buy a home too.

If not here, then somewhere else.

Somewhere else it's only money as well.

Good night.

See you at five.

Good night.

And you told me that
cards are something terrible.

- Because this is true.
- I'd play against you.

Naturally, at lower stakes.
What do you say?

We need to be at Mikun's at five.

I'll be there, of course.

Good.

- He's a crook.
- He was just lucky with cards.

Beginner's luck, that's it!

- I'll do him for good.
- How?

By taking the money back.

- But how?
- I know someone.

He can win the money back.

It is enough to make a phone call.

Darling, it's Mikun,
connect me with Warsaw.

What is it?

I brought the client back
and I've run out of cigarettes.

Your wife has gone away, right?

- My wife has nothing to do with it...
- Someone might see us.

Whatever you call it,
it's my life's passion.

But I've got another one.

I'm going to take this
man to the cleaners.

- That's what you want?
- No, of course not.

He is a very handsome
guy, and elegant too!

He is no sucker, that's for sure.

He duped them nice.

But I'm gonna do him.

You'll see.

I'll show you something.

Come on!

If he comes, sell him these cards.

- These!
- Your tricks again.

- And what if he notices?
- No chance.

If you notice something, I'll pull out.

Look, come on.

Hang on, I only wanted too...

TOURIST HOTEL

Good morning.

Good morning.

Alright, alright then.

Please, come to my room in an hour.

- I'm going home for the cash.
- Not now.

In an hour.

I'll buy a new deck of cards
at the reception.

No, I'll buy the cards.

- And?
- He bought two decks.

My darling!

I'll get you a box of chocolate bars!

One minute.

Do come in.

- Hello.
- Good morning.

- Have a seat, Mr...
- Jurek.

Mr Jerzy, make yourself comfortable.

- You keep it in the open?
- Where should I hide it?

I dunno.

Have a seat.

What are you looking at?

Kant.

Kant.

Immanuel.

'The recluse from Koenigsberg'.

You know, I had much spare time
once and read Kant to avoid boredom.

Have you heard about him?

It's difficult, but once you've
gone through it...

Yes, so I've heard.

We'll play with these?

Correct.

Off we go, I hope I'll not
lose everything to you.

Max.

Four nines.

Do you know why you lost?

- You were lucky with the cards.
- Rubbish.

Because you played this.

You've been the money, not me.

The money blinded you.

- You play to get money, right?
- You play to win.

It is connected with money,
but you play to win.

- Then you can win the money.
- All the same to me.

- That's why you've lost.
- Claptrap.

- You were just lucky.
- Lucky?

One needs to arrange luck for himself.

Poker is a game of deceit, my friend.

We played fair. Both of us cheated.

The best man won.

I can see, you hold no grudge.

I cheated?

The cards were cut with razor.

Such tricks might be
good for cab drivers.

A guy like Mikun would
slap you in the face for this.

You knew.

Had you played cards and not the money,

you would have known that I can see
your nasty swindle.

Wait.

Here, take this, maybe this will
teach you to arrange luck for yourself,

naturally, at Mikun's level.

So, shall we meet at half past four?

Come on, take this.

There he is.

One hundred.

- I'm counting on you.
- Don't you worry.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Let me introduce.

A good friend of mine, he was
passing through our small town.

He will play with us.

And this is the Attorney.

The Big Shar?

- You, here?
- As you see.

Old idiot.

How did he fool you?

- I'm talking to you.
- I told you he was a crook.

To see you in a shit-hole like this.

- He said he was an attorney.
- Pardon me.

I never said I was an attorney.

Yet, since you insisted
on calling me like this...

So, shall we play?

No way.

You cannot win against this guy.

What about my money?

- You can't win?
- No.

Stefan, Stefan!

- I only wanted to ask...
- Jurek!

Take his briefcase!

Have you gone crazy?

- Don't do it.
- Leave.

- Franciscan!
- As you wish.

Franciscan!
Take it from him.

Come on!

Hey!

Open it!

- You know, I did not expect this...
- Get lost!

Let's go, Mr Jurek.

And we made it.

What a thug!

We've got it all.

I don't get it.

They call him the Big Shar.

The Big Sharp.

He's just got out.

They fixed a special game for him.

Man, you can't imagine what
kind of money was involved!

And he said 'no'.

And now I meet him here, with
you, playing for this...

Because he wanted to win against me.

Sit down, don't be afraid.

He lost, cheers!

This guy, if he wants, he always wins.

Yes, actually you were right.

- He wanted to win against you.
- Shit!

Let's go!

Szczecin. First class.

- Change to a fast train in Wrocław.
- Yes, I know.

Thank you.

Where is he?

I drove him to the train station.
He'll be in Katy in an hour or so.

Alright

Something happened?

Nothing. He just forgot to say good-bye.

They are gone.

- It's cosy in here.
- Cosy? Did you see Mikun's house?

You also wanted to buy a house and
you find this hutch cosy?

I did not mean to offend you.
I'm sorry.

Someone said that it is not
the bars that make prisons.

This is true.

One could say: not every
house makes a home.

You keep talking about home.
Let's talk about cards, shall we?

Yes, yes, sir, these things are sacred.

And you do have your home.

Imagine, we sit at a table to play big.

You are an aficionado, I'm a Don.

You lose, I win.

You don't have a home and I...

I do not have it either.

The only thing I won is money.

And that is how the game goes.

It can change different
values into money.

But not the other way round.

Unfortunately.

Do you understand?

I'll make some coffee.

Here. Check these out, razor specialist.

A philosopher asked once if one can
make judgments on the nature of things

basing on images only.

He followed on to create a new,
great philosophy based on this.

Wait a minute.

He played?

Used con tricks?

He used Kant tricks.

They are clean, nothing's here.

- This is your wife.
- Yes.

Really, nothing's here!

Watch the image, but think
about its relation to the actual thing.

Yes? Show me, what's the trick?

I don't have to look at them, boy.

Ace, nine, jack, dame, king.

Wait a minute.

Alright, what about these?

Seven of diamonds.

Six of spades.

Jack of clubs.

- Five of diamonds.
- All cards in this country are marked?

Not the cards but the hands.

What do you mean – the hands?

You can see the image
but you cannot see the thing.

I understand...

No, I can't understand.

And what about these?

This is tint work.

Simply, these cards
have been smartly marked.

Quads of ten.

Quads of jacks.

The cards should be cut.

Yes.

Look.

Ace of hearts at the top,
ace of spades at the bottom.

Cut the cards.

And have a look.

- What's going on?
- Straddle deal.

Damn me.

And now, watch the cards.
Pay attention.

As you can see, my accomplice can
cut the cards the way I want it, right?

I'd love to be your accomplice.

Right, but if the opponent
cuts the cards,

maybe even several times.

What then?

Then you've lost your trick.

Here, deal.

My hand face up.

Stacking.

Simply stacking.

The train is reaching Katy.

They should be there by now.

- So, shall we go?
- But maybe we could eat something?

Maybe just a bit more?

- No, we don't have time.
- You could show me...

Kid, each game is a separate show.

I'll tell you what it's
all about on the way.

You'll be the best in Lutyń.

Come on, let's go.

The real poker consists
of two opponents.

The gist is to gain advantage.

There is a million of ways like:
card marking, variations of tint work,

razor-cut cards, bent ears, and so on.

The illusive are all kinds of
shuffling and manipulation.

A million? Really?

Well, I might have
exaggerated a bit, I don't know.

Damn, they should
be passing by already.

No-one knows all con tricks as
new ways are developed every day.

And what is the defense
against all this?

An attentive and cool eye.

Yet, it is always about
obtaining advantage.

Fifty-one per cent of
an advantage is enough.

What if it is impossible
to pull any trick?

Then, one should obtain
mental advantage.

One should use various manoeuvres
to discompose the opponent.

To win his nerves.
And then he is yours.

And this is what you did
with Mikun and the President?

More or less.

There they are going!

No, no, no, this is beyond
the scope of our agreement.

We are square.

You know...

Just a sec.

I believe you are going
to be the best in town now.

- You keep talking about the town.
- Wait, kid.

You should not pass this door.

But why?

I'm very grateful but I'd like to
understand this thoroughly.

It's your business.

I only showed you a couple
of cons, thank you very much.

- This is as much as I could risk.
- How can it threaten you?

Me?

I don't know.

But you.

Get back home while you still have it.

And water those plants.

Until when?

I don't know, three days maybe.

One hundred seventeen, please.

Ace, the ace is always sure.

But I saw kings and dames
on his hand, understand?

Room two five two.

Here you are.

Thank you very much.

Come in.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Haven't you confused the rooms?

Two five two?

- Yep.
- It's alright then.

You only live once, right?

I had a flat tire.

You know how it is.

And I was a bit tired.

- Enjoy.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

Here you are.

So, you did not listen to my advice.

- I was tired.
- Cut the crap, OK?

- Hotels were built for people.
- Be aware of what you are doing.

You are as stubborn as a mule.

You know...

I would be an idiot
to go back there now.

You saw it.

It's a different world here.

I will always have
time to go back there.

Surely, you are not interested in cards
any more.

So what do you need it for?

Pass it on to me.

I'll make use of it.

You think it's that simple?

So maybe you could at
least fix one game for me?

A real one.

Maybe this is a good idea.

A cold shower will do you good.
I even saw two such guys here.

An eye has its psychology.

It grows weary in the
entanglement of patterns.

It needs an outstanding mark
and there is none.

There are only different shades of red.

Have a look at the shades
on the three layers of leafs

on both sides of this
small circle, here and here.

Now have a go.
Let's start with the lowest.

Seven.

Damn.

This is eight.

This shade – nine.

It's gonna be ten now?

- Wow.
- Good.

It follows to jack, dame, king, ace
and so on.

Damn.

Now I can see it.

This is tint work.

Interesting, isn't it?
Play against them with it.

- Don't they know it?
- No, I don't think so. It's my patent.

Just a minute. How do I know
whom I should play against?

Against two crooks.

You against the two of them.

- What about the cash?
- Well, I don't know.

You will have to
arrange it for yourself.

They used to like to play
with volatile threes.

I remember... it doesn't matter.

- Where do I find them?
- They're downstairs at the moment.

What do they look like?

If you pull them out
yourself, you will know.

Not bad, well, well.

Only what for?

Give it to me.

All my life, I've been teaching my hands
clumsiness in contact with cards.

Surely, you can do it like this.

Yet, after such a show, who's gonna sit
down at the table to play against you?

I get it.

- Shar...
- Shar.

Shar is about thinking.

You need to use your opponent's concept

of gambling, cards
and playing techniques.

Thinking beyond, thinking ahead.

Movement, gesture, gambit.

A real Shar always wins.

He knows the secrets.
This is obvious.

It's funny because there are no secrets
in poker.

There are only cons of different
quality. There is only one secret.

Everybody knows the secret
but few people understand it.

Do I know it?

- You do.
- But I don't understand?

Interesting.

When you understand it,
it'll be too late.

And the cards?

Right, here you are.

- Prepared?
- Yes.

Tint work?

How to use these decks?
They'll buy new ones.

You've already pulled this con.

It is enough to pick up
the tobacconist's lady.

Listen, if you make one wrong move,
you'll lose – you'll lose everything.

Our relationship instantly terminates.

Until the end of the game, we don't
know each other either. Good-bye.

Recognize and lure them,
use the decks and win.

What's the big deal?

Can I help you?

- I'd like, I'd like... a paper, please.
- Here you are.

- Where are the postcards?
- There.

Look.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

- Five decks of cards, please.
- I have only four.

It's all right. I'll take the four.

- How much?
- One hundred and ten.

Seems I left my wallet in the room.

- Can I take only two decks?
- OK.

Here you are.

Here you are.

You know, I'll take the pork
chop, tomato soup and beer.

Right away.

Can I?

- Check, please.
- Here you are.

I'd like to ask about the location
of the car market here in Wrocław.

At Kramer's Square.

- Where?
- Kramer's Square.

Maybe I'll jot it down for you.

- My apologies.
- It's OK.

Thank you very much.

Shar... The Big Shar.

Hi, Lipo.

We'll play for everything today.

For life! Your life, Shar!

I have an advantage.

I'll have to go to therapy
for slaughtering you.

If you kill me, you'll get the chair.

Do you understand
what we are playing for?

We are playing for your life.

Shar!

- What's up with Lipo?
- No idea.

He jumped into the pool
and started yelling.

- Some lunatic...
- You don't say.

I'll open blind.

I'll raise.

Three-six.

Without me.

Ten more.

How many cards?

Two.

- And here?
- Two.

I'll play.

Three.

I'll raise.

And ten on the top.

I'll call.

Don't bother.

Wait a second.

I've got overcards.

Light.

Drop the razor.

Against the wall!

Against the wall!

How did you shuffle, you moron?

Good evening, I've come
to invite you to the banquet.

Isn't it too late for a banquet?

I can be your present.
My name is Jola.

Come here.

Master, your apprentice
did not disgrace you.

Here, mission accomplished.

And to the bottle cap...

Thank you, ladies.

- Wait, wait, what's going on?
- Here.

- Take this. This is your money.
- Mine.

- Leave.
- Wait a sec, Master.

What's going on?

Is this a monastery?

I took the guys to the cleaners.

I'm rolling in money, the
ladies are kosher as well.

What's wrong?

Let's have some fun.

Come on.

- There will be no banquet?
- Come on, come on.

- Did you take the money?
- Yes, I have everything.

Come on.

And what are you waiting for?

There will be no banquet here.

- I do not accept any presents either.
- From no-one?

Lipo sent you?

The psychopath?

Would you spare me a cigarette?

- Ending of the Fisher's game?
- What, what?

How can you tell?

My father was crazy about chess.

Since he had no son, he
forced me to play with him.

You had a flying start.

But back then I was
running to the university

in a nylon coat with a fur collar.

Dad was passionate about solving schemes
like this one.

I must tell you, I've heard
more touching legends.

And?

- Daddy?
- Yeah.

He solved his problem.

How? Before Fisher?

I've been looking for you, Shar.

If only a fraction of your legend
is true, you are the man I need.

Poor Lipo remembers the times when
he was a normal guy and lost everything.

Well, I don't know if
his stories embrace

the ten percent you care so much about.

- What do you want?
- I've got a job for you.

- Here?
- No.

Where?

Warsaw, well, near Warsaw.

How much?

Maybe even a million.

- When?
- Could be now.

My car is parked in front of the hotel.

Why me?

Because you are the real Shar.

Who's the guy?

He has it coming.

But who?

You are right, this might be a plot.

Plots and betrayals work only
for the strong and the cowardly.

And who would you be if
you had accepted the present?

Selfless sacrifice?

In your trade, here...

It's not selfless and don't ask me why.
I will not answer anyway.

Want a cig?

I had them somewhere here.

Damn!

What's up?

What's happened?
Are you nuts?

I'm in a hurry.

Where are you going?

What's wrong with you?

No hard feelings.

Bye!

These shoes weren't made for such walks.

- The same applies to your outfit.
- Oh yes.

Typical problems of girls who want to
look like ladies.

The ones who wear jeans from dawn
till dusk do not have such problems.

- And why don't you wear jeans?
- Because I'm a lady.

Listen, why did an intelligent
girl like you become a...

A whore, you wanted to say?

- Well, yes.
- Gimme a break, Uncle.

I could ask you why such
an intelligent man became a...

Crook?

You are right. Stupid question.

Let them be thieves as long as
they don't steal.

What did you say?

- That...
- It wasn't me.

It was another uncle.

We've also started to build a house
near Wrocław.

We'll probably move
out and my husband's

decided to postpone
this plan until we get back.

- Hard currency country?
- Probably Japan or Hong Kong.

We have not made up our minds yet.

Japan is a very interesting country.
Hong Kong...

- Dorota!
- Yeah?

Make us coffee.

- Excuse me.
- And some drink.

- Here or upstairs?
- Upstairs.

We'll have some fun with the cards.

I nearly fell dead when I saw you.

- Afraid of the wife?
- I don't like conflicts.

- She thinks I'm cheating on her.
- Are you?

Of course, you know how it is.

- By the way, you look great.
- By the way of what? I don't get it.

Jola, you know I've
always had a soft spot for you.

Interesting way to put it...

The fact is that at the university
people thought we were a couple.

- You know how it is.
- Yep, I know how it is.

Nice wheels.

Did you get it from your father or from
this black-market vegetable supplier?

Jola, give me a break.

- Why did you disappear?
- I graduated and got married.

Nice roses.

This husband of yours is very nice.

Amicable.

Jarek!

Here you are.
He can't be good in bed.

He is from the old school.

Jarek!

- Will you call me?
- Maybe.

Why don't you come downstairs
to join us at last?

We're going to play a bit.
Take care of the guest.

Is Jarek still so fond of poker?

Oh, yes.

Do you know each other well?

- Can I have some coke?
- Yes, here you are.

You know, we were
friends at the university.

Thank you.

He had a reputation
of an outstanding player.

- Ice?
- Yes, please. Thank you.

You went to the polytechnic?

Yes, for a year. And then
I moved to the university.

Please, stick it in your pocket
and control your countenance.

To your health.

- I'll make them something to eat.
- It's better not to interrupt them.

It makes life easier.

Right.

You see. Jarek is so insane.

Dorota!

Dorota!

- Have you finished?
- No.

Where have you put the dollars?

- Jarek!
- Just tell me where you stashed them.

They're in the drawer, in the bedroom.

- Are completely nuts?
- I know what I'm doing. Shut up!

...and the Prime Secretary
of the Polish United Workers Party

was concerned about harmonious
development of our country.

The prosperity of
our citizens will grow.

We've outstayed our welcome.

It's almost midnight.

Right, and it's difficult to say
when they will have finished.

Maybe you'd like to go to bed?

The guest room is upstairs.

If you don't mind, I'll
do that with pleasure.

Let's call each other by
our first names.

I'm Jola.

Good-night.

Maybe you should rethink your decision?

No, let's keep on playing.

If so, then so...

Well, we've stayed a bit too long.
Good-night.

I'm begging you, please don't do this.

The car. Dad will kill me.

Anything but this.
I'm begging you.

Please, stand up.

You are a man after all.

You scumbag!

You scum!

I will destroy you.

I will crush you like a worm.

You won't be safe in this country.

You and your Jolka.

I used to fuck her.

I had her in all ways I wanted.

She ran after me like a bitch.
And then I got bored of her.

I'm not interested in my
wife's previous affairs, sir.

My regards to your wife.
Let's go, Jola.

We are not welcome here any more.

Out!

I'll bust you!

You will be caught by
the police immediately.

Perfect match.

A whore and a crook.

Lousy whore.

You will yet have to kiss my hands.

Why did I have to marry such scum!

- I'll try to follow you in this thing.
- OK.

Let go, let go.

I can't do anything else for you.

When are you going back to Wrocław?

There are so many dirtbags
in the world who

have their brains concealed
behind the zip of their pants.

I'll stay with you.

As long as you wish.
You are a marvellous man.

- Don't worry about this, it will pass.
- Give me a break, babe.

Weakness is the only
flaw you cannot improve.

Purchase agreement,

registration card, keys.

Here.

What a mother-fucking world.

I think I've grasped your secret.

Is that so?

My driving instructor told me to drive

as if all other drivers
wanted to kill me.

You had a good teacher.

Listen, baby.

Drive safe.

It's dark and the roads are wet.

I love the night and the rain.
After all, I'm the girl of the night.

A crook can trust no-one because he
could be cheated himself, is that right?

Correct, baby.

By anyone, not only at cards.

It's sad.

They don't give awards for my views.

Which uncle this time?

Irrelevant, myself.

When people learn each other's
secrets, they become closer.

Drive as if all drivers
wanted to kill you.

You too?

A bit less than the others.
Therefore, please go now.

- Are we going to...
- No.

- And if I want to find you?
- Please, set off on your way.

Bye, Shar, the great recluse!

Here you are.

- Not too warm?
- No, it's all right.

Good evening.

Good evening.

What are you doing here?

You must admit that I
tricked those guys in Wrocław.

- May I?
- Naturally.

Cheers!

- But listen, kid...
- I know.

I know what I did, I know!

Every moron who saw such
money would do the same.

If you understand this,
why did you come here?

I'll tell you.

You allowed me to drink one shot.

I choked on the first one,
does it mean I can't drink?

- Want to get drunk?
- Can't you see?

I said I would only show
you a couple of tricks.

Nothing more.

This much I could risk.

No drinking binge.

You know, yesterday I conned
a coach pilot cool-handedly.

- I wasn't stupid.
- Congratulations.

You are starting
your own... drinking.

And who gives up after the first shot?

The same rule applies at cards.

Anyway, you know it all too well.

- Are you in?
- Today?

I'll pop in. Maybe.

Poker?

Yep.

But without you. We are square.

I get it.

I know what you think about me.
But I'm going to prove it to you.

I've grasped your poker secret, the one
I supposedly know but don't understand.

You need to have a catch.

And I can figure out a catch.
I've got money and I can lose it.

- And what do you call money?
- I do have money!

And I will not lose it.

I will catch a guy from here and
I'll see him dangling.

You'll get a beating at the first
attempt and that's gonna be it for you.

This one, for example? Does he play?

Right now, as you
can see, he is drinking.

I'm afraid he is penniless.

Mikun's secret weapon.

- Yes, he is part of the furniture here.
- Is he good?

Money-changer, small-time
con, all of that.

To your and Mikun's standards – good.

To my standards.

Hello, I've got an offer for you.

- Have we met?
- What?

Play now.

Of course, we've met.
Mikun, Lutyń.

Oh, yes, how can I help you?

One word on the side.

Excuse me.

What's up?

I'd like to take you to the cleaners.

When?

Whenever. Could be today, tomorrow.

Nice offer but I've got one condition.

What?

You need to have twenty grand.

This kind of money.

- So when?
- Could be today, tomorrow.

Good evening.

We are pleased to present
the artistic performance.

And?

I know I'm better than
he is, but does it matter?

- Money can also be the catch.
- The best catch.

Therefore, go back to Lutyń.

From here to Lutyń...

The government will pass this
act tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

The prices of gold goods
will rise overnight.

This applies to all shops
and jeweller's workshops.

- Do you understand? A raise by 100%!
- Leave it.

Don't you get it? We take the gold,
keep it for two days and sell it back.

Forget it.

I wish I worked at
a normal, decent fund.

- Why are you sticking your head out?
- I know what I'm doing.

I love having a cold.

Don't you worry.

- What if the raise doesn't pass?
- Are you buying any players now?

Anything can happen.
I know that the raise gets passed.

And if not, I will give you the
money back. The same banknotes.

If this cash does not come back...

I'm your brother after all.

You've got one and a half million here.

Thank you, madam.

You are lending five hundred thousand
zloty for four days to him.

In return, you are obtaining the rights
to the cooperative

ownership flat, furniture
and fittings included.

You are also obtaining the
rights to the Volga passenger car

of the registration
number: twelve-fifty one.

The agreement is valid.

- I must say that it is extraordinary.
- Life is life, right?

The agreement has been prepared
and may be signed now. Here you are.

- Hello?
- Your wife is not available.

- OK, that will be all.
- Thank you very much.

- Check, please.
- Yes, in a minute.

Yes, yes, it's me...

This looks great, doesn't it?

Oh, Jesus. This is it!

Deal

- Cut.
- Already cut.

Two.

Two.

Quads.

And here's my response.

- Not too barefaced?
- For Denel? No.

First, I will tantalize him
with some typical tricks.

Then, I'll move on to
solve everything in one deal.

Simply, I'll switch the deck.

He will never expect me
to pull such a jerky trick.

- What do you think?
- Such lunacy often works out.

And how do you intend
to switch the cards?

Bless you.

Thank you.

Good one.

It is probably your most important game.

- Understand all of it.
- I'll try.

I'm helping you as someone
helped me one day. Don't get fooled.

If you don't pass this test,
you are a dirtbag.

All right, Shar, let me focus now, OK?

Just don't go crazy afterwards.
Remember what I have just told you.

Five hundred.

I call.

Full-house.

OK.

Come to daddy, you
will be better-off here.

Two.

Your move.

I'll pass.

Two hundred.

No.

- What's wrong with you?!
- I'm sorry.

Strange, the bottle is cold.

Well, make yourselves a short break.

I don't know how this
could have happened.

Cheers.

Wait.

I must be mad.

One thousand.

I'll raise.

One thousand

and three on top of that.

I'll raise.

Three... there's no point
in playing long hours...

and six more.

One good betting and we are done.

We'll see.

I'm in.

It's gonna cost you more.

Five more.

I'm in.

Cards?

Two.

The winner takes it all.

Five.

I call.

You will have one thousand here.

One, two, three, four.

What an encounter, as if
it had been prearranged.

Four aces have met the poker.

The king is here with me.

You are colour-blind, my boy.

How did it happen?

My catch, I had the catch!

This is poker.

Do you understand?

If not, then go back home!
Off you go, you little shit!

I'll bet he'll never sit
at the card table again.

Shall we split the dough here?

No, at your place.

Listen, in Zakopane,
at the Kasprowy Hotel,

a Romanian prince or
something is enjoying his holiday.

I've heard he is disgustingly rich.

The boys were trying to
outplay him but could not make it.

Would you like me to set you up?

Fix the game?

- No.
- No?

- I'm not interested.
- What?

And what have you just done?

Huh?

- A relay.
- What?

You won't understand it anyway.

This is my private issue, completely.

OK, if you are not in,
someone else is in.

Listen, old pal. We should be going.

What's wrong?

Mikun.

Mikun?

Give me the bag.

I'll drop it at the boiler room.

You'll go back through
the upper floors.

See you in the evening, Shar.

Darn it, the same thing again.

Let's not do it today.

Come on, no-one is
going to do it for you.

I'm not doing it.

This is not the first time it happened.
To hell with it.

- Hey.
- What?

Look!

Legs.

Wait.

They've done him.

But who?

The express train 'Miner'
from Gliwice to Warsaw-East

calling at track 3, platform 2.

Thank you.

The cheapest cigarettes, please.

And two decks of cards.
