Poland's Wolf of Wall Street, but everyone's drunk and it's 1981.
Entertaining movie about the early days of Polish stock exchange in the beginning of 80's. Young TV reporter is sucked into the inferno of easy money, deception, crime, sex and drugs. Sometimes like Kieslowski's moral tales, sometimes like Pasikowski's brutal fables, even sometimes like "Once upon a time in America". Fantastic creations of Baka as Maks and Majchrzak as Rekin /the Shark/ - evil incarnated.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed during Poland's actual market transformation, making its cynicism almost documentary-level prophetic.
The Warsaw Stock Exchange reportedly hated it so much they tried to block distribution.
