Synopsis

Marcin Borowski goes to Lvov on a business trip. There he meets his ex girlfriend, Maria Marczuk, a teacher and a single parent bringing up her son Michał. During a tough conversation Marcin realizes that Michał is his son – the fruit of their students\' love. He is almost certain of that. After returning home, Marcin invites Maria along with Michał to come to Warsaw. Unfortunately, on their way to Warsaw Maria gets killed in a criminal assault. When Marcin finds out about it, he resolves to take care of Michał. At first he does not want Michał to be put in the orphanage, but after some time he starts considering such possibility. The boy, having learned about this, decides to escape on his own to Ukraine.
