Slave

Nikodem (Andrzej Chyra) serves his sentence under a new penitentiary programme involving work at the house of Maja and Łukasz who have full power over him. The household members are surprised when Nikodem’s appeal is successful and he regains his freedom.
Despite the fact that they could have parted ways and never met again, they stay together for one more day.
