[MAN] Things do not slow down when you have a gun pointed at you.

The tape rolled back.

I was back there again.

In '94, the summer was coming to an end, and so was my childhood.

They unmoored the motorboat, lit the fire and let it go.

Mmm-hmm. You don't have any problem with it?

[MAN] There is my little girl.

- [INDISTINCT CHATTER] - [WOMAN] Paweł!

Where have you been? I was looking for you.

- Easy, Mom. It's all under control. - I could lose my job because of you.

- You're supposed to be looking after them. - I know my responsibilities.

I vouched for you.

We will give them one and a half each, and see...

Hi, I'm Artur. Artur Perkowski.

Paweł.

Uh

I'm a chaperone.

I came to the camp with my mother... which sucks.

I'm Daniel.

Laura.

Hmm...

[CHUCKLES]

[SHUTTER CLICKING]

[MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY THROUGH EARPHONES]

He lives five minutes away from us.

[VIDEO GAME BEEPING]

- Mmm? - He lives five minutes away from us.

- Who? - Daniel.

- [GAME BEEPS] - He was with you at the pond.

[PAWEŁ] Ah.

He lives near us, and he's not going out with anyone.

Nice.

Look what he gave me.

[SNICKERS]

Tacky.

Bugger off.

- Did Laura get anything from you? - Was she supposed to?

Do you want to have a girlfriend or just get laid?

Kamila, mind your own business, okay?

She's the principal's daughter, big brother.

So?

So... just saying.

I'm off to make my rounds.

It's been parked here since this morning.

- The keys are in the glove compartment. - How do you know? Did you open it?

[SCOFFS]

Turn it off.

- [LAURA] Whose is it? - It can be ours.

For a little while.

- [PAWEŁ] Fuck. Artur! - Paweł...

My mother's going to kill me.

- It's full of sand and leaves. - Maybe it belongs to a ranger.

Or a poacher.

No.

[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER PA]

[INDISTINCT YELLING]

Whoo! Great! She went in beautifully! Just like that.

High five! Superb! Great!

Attagirl! Kaja!

Paweł, is your battery dead? You didn't take even one photo of Kaja.

- There's more smartphones here than kids. - [WOMAN] Don't be stupid. Take a picture.

Kids in spandex. And who knows who will watch it.

Not everyone has ill intentions, prosecutor.

[PAWEŁ] Not everyone has good intentions, though.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY] We need to change our company.

- [CROWD CHEERING] - Bravo!

- Kaja was better. - Sure, she was.

[GIRL] Daddy!

Hi!

- I won third place! - Your mom would be so proud of you, hon.

- [GIRL 2] High five! - You were great, Kaja. High five.

- I did it! - [WOMAN] Yes!

[WOMAN SIGHS]

You and my husband have the same taste in housekeeping.

[PAWEŁ] Wait...

[WOMAN] Um...

Focus now, Paweł.

You can freeze the food containers...

Okay?

But not the jars.

- Don't freeze jars, remember. - No jars.

- Very good. - Got any wine?

And what else? Wash your car maybe?

- If you insist. - Moron.

They went out like a light. Thanks for staying tonight.

My sister would be devastated by this mess.

You could find someone to clean this place.

- I'll post an ad. - [SCOFFS]

No, you won't. You'll forget. You're a workaholic.

I work so I don't have to think about Asia.

Move closer to us!

The foundation can terminate this place's lease.

Kaja has her school here. And friends.

It would be like it used to be.

Nothing will be like it used to be.

Got to go now.

Two hours, tops.

Working a difficult case. Gotta review the files.

- Too bad. - Thanks.

CASE FILE

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

Mr. Paweł Kopiński?

Inspector Buczkowski.

I was at your place. Your sister-in-law told us you were at the office.

- Would you care to come with me? - Where to?

- It won't take long. - "It won't take long."

Not a place I'm familiar with.

Very funny.

Call me tomorrow morning. I've got plenty of work to do.

I'm afraid this can't wait.

[ENGINE STOPS]

[SIREN WAILING IN THE DISTANCE]

Good evening. Inspector Jork.

Lovely. We are all here. Let's go.

[PAWEŁ] Can you tell me what this is all about?

- A Marek Kowalski was murdered last night. - [PAWEŁ] I don't know anyone by that name.

A passerby found the body, under the Kartuska Street bridge.

- [PAWEŁ] What does it have to do with me? - We believe you'll be able to help us.

[PAWEŁ] How? I don't know him.

- But Kowalski knew you. - [PAWEŁ] Oh, that's interesting.

We found items on him that suggested you knew each other.

What fucking "items"? A carpet? A washing machine...

- Listen... - Leave it.

Marek Kowalski was the name on his driving license.

We checked. It's a fake.

We don't have his prints in the database.

Until now, no one has been able to identify him.

And you think I'll succeed?

- I do. - Mmm.

Shot in the head?

How many times?

- Do you know him? - No.

Are you sure?

Why did you bring me here?

He had your address in his pocket. And a few press clippings about you.

I'm a regional prosecutor.

Maybe I prosecuted a case he was complicit in.

Except that those articles weren't just about you.

Twenty-five years ago, you were a chaperone at a summer camp. Correct?

Point.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

- [WHISTLE BLOWS] - Score!

- [BOY 1] Artur! - [BOY 2] Come on!

["I LOVE YOU" BY T.LOVE PLAYING]

Go for it, Perkowski!

[BOYS] Ooh!

Hey, dude!

Sorry!

It was a foul. Here you go.

[DANIEL] Paweł.

[ALL EXCLAIM]

Do you like her?

- [CHUCKLES SOFTLY] Kamila? - Uh-huh.

She's my sister, moron.

No. No, forget it.

Relax.

I prefer skinny ones.

Tell her.

Careful. She could have anyone.

And she'll have me.

Artur... [EXCLAIMS]

What's going on here?

Come on...

Mom...

You fool!

Is that your mom?

Monika...

[SIGHS]

Can you see me well?

Okay.

Wojtek Malczak.

[CHUCKLES]

I like to be looked at.

I'm a senior counselor at Korczak High School Summer Camp.

I don't know...

Being like Bob Dylan.

Well.

I'm Kamila.

KOPIŃSKI IN THE CROSSHAIRS

I think it's just a simple coincidence.

I don't know.

I'm sorry, I can't help you.

Goodbye.

Where were you on Saturday night?

Am I a suspect?

[SCOFFS]

We'll be in touch.

[SIGHS]

- [WHISPERING] You're awake? - You promised you'd read to me.

- [SIGHS] - Just a few pages, Dad. Please.

- You promised. - Hmm.

- But I won't do voices. - Okay.

Where did we finish?

"This day,

the girl walked the field completely alone.

"Colorful birds were flying around her..."

Close your eyes. I'll keep on reading, but you have to close your eyes.

"Suddenly, she met Mary. She wore a red dress.

'Oh, you look so nice!'"

- [ARTUR] We need to talk! - What?

- Are you with me or not? - Me with you?

Have you been out in the sun for too long?

- [BOY] You heard her. Beat it, Perkowski. - You fucking wish.

[MONIKA] Leave him!

[CAMPERS CLAMORING]

- [PAWEŁ] Artur! - [WOJTEK] Hey!

[GIRL] Wojtek!

[BOY] Has your mom finished the job yet?

- Did she clean up the shitty toilets? - [ARTUR] What did you say?

- Your mother washes my crap. - [ARTUR] Motherfucker!

[PAWEŁ] Guys, enough!

Nothing else to see here!

- I'll kill the punk. - [PAWEŁ] Calm down.

You'll find another one.

Have you never been in love?

Honestly?

No.

That sucks.

- Love is overrated. - [PAWEŁ] Oh, yeah?

- Why? - Because it causes pain.

Do you like to feel pain?

It's a stupid question, Wojtek.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

But one thing is true.

Your evening is ruined,

while she is still there, having a great time with that wimp.

Don't agitate him, okay?

This is the best medicine for a broken heart.

Cherry vodka.

- [KAMILA] Well, well... - [ARTUR] Do you want some cherry vodka?

- [DANIEL] So? How about you? - [LAURA] No, thanks.

Yuck.

[DANIEL] Give it to me.

Hey.

Are you all right?

[CLEARS THROAT] Mmm-hmm.

- [SIGHS] - Do you need some water?

Mmm-mmm.

[WOMAN] What are you doing?

Sorry for waking you up.

I'm looking for something.

- [WOMAN INHALES AND EXHALES DEEPLY] - My mom.

Wanna talk?

What kind of person do you have to be to leave your child?

Who the fuck

would do something like that?

I don't know, Paweł.

- Maybe she had her reasons. - What reasons?

She just left me.

[WOMAN] Paweł!

Who was drinking with you? Tell me!

- No one. - No one?

- So you drank all of it yourself? - Please don't yell.

Was it that Perkowski boy?

[SIGHS] I told you. It's all mine. No one else was here last night.

[SIGHS HEAVILY]

Pull a stunt like that again, and God knows what I might do.

Thanks.

Like father, like son.

[DOOR SLAMS]

Artur brought liquor to the camp.

Check his stuff.

We've got one bag. I'd have noticed.

What have you been up to again, boy?

[ARTUR SIGHS]

If you give Paweł even a sip of alcohol again,

you're out of the camp. Understand?

I didn't give him anything.

[WOMAN] You're lying.

- I'm telling you. - Stay away from Paweł!

You're no good for him.

- Neither are you. - [WOMAN 2] Artur!

- What did you say? - He didn't say anything, doctor.

Idiot.

[PAWEŁ] Karol!

It's bed time.

- Should we play tomorrow? - Sure.

Thanks. Let's go.

[CLATTERING]

Look at it.

That's her?

Are you kidding me?

Do you recognize them?

[WOMAN 2] Yes.

Bartosz Marancz. Emil Dunaj-Szafrański.

They raped me.

They plead not guilty.

And we don't have any witnesses who could confirm your testimony.

Because we were alone.

Those two and me.

[WOMAN 1] A medical examination showed no signs of physical abuse.

Including the clothes you were wearing at that party.

But I'm telling the truth.

These are very serious allegations. Do you understand?

Okay. Let me understand a few things.

Why didn't you report it right after it took place?

I don't know. I was ashamed.

Then I found out there was a video of the... incident.

How do you know?

I've heard.

From whom?

In the campus corridors. I don't know these people.

- Maybe you misinterpreted something? - I didn't.

[SNIFFLES]

Marancz and Dunaj-Szafrański had phones in their hands back then.

Only I didn't know they were recording.

They really did it to me.

[INHALES]

Okay, one more time. Let's try to go over what happened,

minute by minute,

starting with you leaving home.

My dorm. My home is in Gozdawa, near Rakoszyce.

[MAN] Is this seat taken?

Krzysztof Dunaj-Szafrański.

You are a TV journalist. I know. Paweł Kopiński. Please take a seat.

I thought prosecutors ate at better places.

- What's wrong with this one? - It's a bar.

So what are you doing here?

- [SIGHS] - [INDISTINCT CHATTER]

I hear you've got a daughter.

To what ends would you go to protect her?

First of all, I would never let her party with your son.

- That wasn't funny. - It wasn't supposed to be.

That girl, Klaudia Broniarek, she's lying.

- Emil didn't rape her. Neither did Bartek. - The court will decide that.

It was just another frat party. They got drunk and had some fun.

We used to be young, too, and we've done our share of dumb stuff, prosecutor.

Rape is a crime. Not just a reason to be embarrassed.

I'll pay Klaudia Broniarek 50,000 zlotys.

And donate twice as much to your wife's foundation.

I think it's an honest offer.

Or should I add a chip for you?

"Add a chip"?

Just look kindly upon them. That's all I'm asking.

Your son and his friend were summoned for questioning twice.

And they didn't show up.

Have you never made a mistake, prosecutor?

Everyone's got secrets,

Mr. Kopiński.

And I'm a fucking good reporter.

[ROCK SONG PLAYING]

- Coming? - Got to watch them.

I can't.

You've been watching them the entire time during camp.

[EXCLAIMS SOFTLY]

It's the last night.

You okay?

[LAURA] Yeah.

The battery is almost dead.

Too bad.

[SOFTLY] Are you sure?

- [LAURA INHALES SHARPLY] - [GROANS SOFTLY]

[BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY]

[SCREAMING IN THE DISTANCE]

- What was that? - I don't know.

[SCREAMING CONTINUES]

Get up! Come!

Run! Fast!

[SCREAMING CONTINUES]

[LAURA YELLS] Paweł!

A motion for keeping the suspects in custody

to ensure there is no obstruction of justice in the case.

Your Honor

forensic evidence is being analyzed as we speak.

We are establishing the facts.

We have a video.

[WOMAN] Are you all right?

A video? Fuck, boss. What video?

One moment. Mr. Kopiński!

You didn't listen to me.

[LINE RINGING]

[JORK OVER PHONE] So, your memory's back?

[PAWEŁ] Can we meet at the morgue one more time?

[PAWEŁ] The camp I was junior instructor at ended tragically.

Four kids entered the woods and never returned.

Two bodies were found soon after.

The other two were never found. One of them was my sister's.

Fuck me.

It's impossible.

- So, you know him. - Fuck me.

[JORK] Who is he?

Artur Perkowski.

[PAWEŁ] If this is Artur, maybe my sister is still alive.
