Description
Summary:Duration: 01:40:00 A story about passion and money, or rather about the passion for money. Wojnar – one of the richest citizens of a small town – is giving a wedding party for his daughter Kasia. Soon we realize, though, that the groom agreed to marry Kasia only because Wojnar promised to buy him a car. Kasia was already pregnant but by somebody else – who attends the wedding disguised as somebody recording it on video. We also realize that Wojnar needs the wedding in order to convince his own father to transfer a valuable piece of land to him. But the grandfather does not want to do so, and disappears. The local mafia, who were promised the land, move in on Wojnar, and so do others who want to drain him of all his money. By the morning, Wojnar is ruined, his wife has left him and his daughter has eloped with her first love.
