We've got not choice.

His prices are the best in the region.

Pawel!

F***ing Arab, but you see -

... to freeze the balls off a brass monkey.

O!

PRODUCED Y:

DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY

Aren't you going to eat that?

The best meat's near the bone.

And what can I get you for dessert,

darling?

Nothing thanks.

Can't I even tempt you to a couple

of our warm, sweet dumplings?

The spirit is willing, ogusia...

ut the flesh is weak...

Now Zygmunt,

you'll have me in tears in a minute...

A woman of character,

no two ways about it!

And well ready! Why not give her hand

with the washing up?

Son...

Not at my time of life.

Will you pay?

I'm going for a smoke.

Goodbye, ogusia

and see you next week!

ye for now, Zygmunt...

I'll keep the dumplings warm for you!

Has something spoiled

your dad's appetite?

The doctor warned him

about his cholesterol...

Right...

DIRECTED Y:

One of the darkest pages

in our history:

the start of martial law.

December 1981.

he New Boleslaw mine goes on strike.

The communist authorities decide

- to send in the security squads.

- Dad, come and see!

7 Solidarity members lose their lives,

7 martyrs to freedom,

lost to the bullets

of a murderous system.

29 years on and the man who led that

crack security squad is on trial again.

he courts have yet to prove his guilt.

Two earlier trials were dismissed.

Will this, the third,

finally reveal the truth?

he accused has already

caused an uproar,

testifying that there was an agent

of the Security Service

among the strike leaders.

The victims' families are outraged...

Ms va, what are your thoughts

about the first hearing?

The accused has one aim;

VICTIM'S DAUGHTER

to prevent the trial continuing

and evade responsibility yet again!

It's the third trial. After so long,

people are saying it's relentless...

But do you think it's normal that

the man who killed my father,

shot him at close quarters, has been

running around free for 29 years?

All we want is justice,

so that our children can grow up

in a country that isn't afraid of the truth!

Come on, Mum!

xcuse me, please.

Dad!

Yes?

Eva was on television!

They interviewed her!

How about that?

- Where?

- In court, with her mum.

Oh yes, it's all starting again...

If it amuses them, then good luck to them!

Just so long they leave me out of it.

- Want me to drive?

- No, really. I'm fine.

- Hi.

- Hiya.

Did you see them at each

other's throats yesterday?

- Got off to a good start, right?

- What?

- The trial!

- Don't talk to me about that circus...

- Hi Rysiu.

- Hi.

- How's it going?

- It's winter, my friends!

- Winter!

- You going to unload that today?

Yup...

Tommy!

Grandpa's here!

Everything O?

Are you tired?

Not him!

Spent the whole trip snoozing!

You're the one who didn't want

to hand over the wheel!

My star...

Hello, darling!

You didn't look at all bad

on television...

Oh, sure...

I was as red as a beetroot!

ut you're even better in the flesh!

Is Tommy going to eat something too?

A little bit...

Mummy will give you

your bottle in a minute.

The trial...

reporters...

What do you need all that for, Eva?

And taking your mother along, too.

Stirring up the past's the last thing

she needs right now.

- ut she wants to be there.

- What the hell for?

You won't hear any of the truth anyway!

This time, it'll happen.

The new judge is determined.

And most of all, she's young.

It's a new generation, Dad.

She's brilliant! Really!

And just what can she

do with no evidence?

The commies destroyed

all the paperwork in '89.

- There's nothing! Not one scrap of paper!

- Dad...

They should have hung those red sons

of b*tches once and for all!

on appetit.

I don't fancy a Merc...

You might not fancy one -

but a 2.4 Turbocharged Direct Injection...

TDI...!

My brother-in-law's

going to do up the bodywork.

- Two weeks and it's burn rubber!

- Finished the cabbies' course?

Almost. One more exam on Friday

and that's it...

How about you?

Going to start?

I'm thinking about it.

ut it's expensive...

Five! For the licence

and everything, man!

- Five grand?

- Five grand!

So what? No pain, no gain...

like I said to Gosia,

"If we're in the red in a year,

we'll piss off abroad!"

- You said that two years ago.

- Yeah, but Gosia wanted to come back!

I'd have f***ing stayed in Ireland,

no discussion!

- You here?

- Yup. So, next week?

My deep respects, Sir!

To be perfectly frank, he wasn't

at all nice, not the slightest bit.

So please don't feel unduly sorry for him.

We're not going to feel sorry

for the dragon either, are we?

Is it tasty?

Where did he live, that dragon?

Is that it?

Yes!

You'd look gorgeous in this.

- ut isn't it a maternity dress, Pawel?

- Yes, exactly, a maternity dress...

So it's home and Pampers for me

and you on the road all the time!

Thanks a lot!

ut that'll be over after Christmas...

ut darling,

I have exams after Christmas.

Honestly, just a few more grand

and that's it.

And have you already talked to dad?

Well, almost...

Almost?

e careful!

I'm being careful.

Here it is!

So pop it in!

Hello?...

No, he's still asleep.

Hello, Tommy!

My wife's not here...

Yes, this evening...

Goodbye.

Some reporter just phoned.

Wanted to talk to you about the trial...

- Reporter?

- Yes. He's going to phone later.

I've already done my bit...

I've said everything I had to say...

And what use will it be?

Clowns!

Hello?

No, his son...

I'll see.

Actually, he can't talk right now.

O, I'll pass that on. Thank you.

And now it's that guy

from Solidarity who's called.

- Which one?

- The one you don't like. The young one.

What does he want?

I mean, he knows I'm not active any more.
