Giza and her husband Erwin struggle to make ends meet in their Silesian mining-town home after Erwin loses his job and faces humiliating demands at the employment office. When Giza befriends the well-off Monika, she’s offered work at a nightclub - first cleaning, then a shocking ultimatum: turn to prostitution or leave.
