Doesn't matter if it's alcohol...

...drugs, psychotropic substances

or other toxins.

Some people even sniff glue.

All these shades of grey

are the same.

You're entrapped by new demons.

Lies, anger,

violence, depression...

Robbery...

And you've become

an enemy of this world.

You've become

an enemy of yourself.

For an enemy,

the only option is rejection.

Don't do it.

You hear me?

No, no, no!

Help me.

Wrocaw, 1984

ADDICTION TREATMENT CENTRE

The rules are the same

for everyone.

How many times

do I have to repeat them?

You two were caught in bed together.

Which is, as we all know,

strictly forbidden.

You knew about it,

but didn't say a word.

All three of you are demoted.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

Open your eyes.

Breathe.

A cigarette.

The last one

before the check-in.

Jerzy Grski.

Our rules.

Read and sign them.

Your status is 'a newcomer'.

You break any of the rules,

you're out, get it?

You can get promoted

to 'a tenant' and 'a host'.

Then, if you break a rule,

you get demoted to the first level.

Like they did.

OK, I get it.

I'm in.

But why the f*** shave?

You can leave.

The door is always open.

But if you stay,

the rules are like in jail.

Grski! Is it your day off?

Why haven't you finished?

Off to the square!

Let's run!

Run for your life!

Halina, get two guys

to pick him up!

Wait.

one year later

- Can you swim?

- What are we doing here?

- Can you swim?

- I can't.

Never mind.

- Good morning!

- Hi, gentlemen!

This is your new worker,

Jerzy Grski.

- Hello.

- He can start today.

I think we've met.

Did you come here as a kid?

Maybe a few times.

Doesn't f***ing matter.

You can do the tiles.

Here and in the changing room.

And we'll do the paperwork.

How's Halina?

Good. She can't complain.

He can't swim?

He said he could swim very well.

Now I remember you.

Kid!

Come here!

- Thanks for the clothes.

- Yours are already dry.

Got a favour to ask.

Can I stay after hours

to swim a little?

No going commando, all right?

- No, thank you.

- Stop bullshitting, kid.

I see you work hard.

You're gonna warm yourself up.

Only informers don't drink.

Hi, Grski!

How's it going?

Don't tell me you forgot.

Inspection!

- How could I forget?

- Check his pockets.

Closer.

Close your eyes.

Open your eyes!

Breathe.

Let me through!

As you know,

our colleague committed suicide.

Lately, in hospital,

she took medication

and got addicted again.

This tragedy

was caused by her weakness.

Her weakness?

Or your methods?

Weakness, Grski.

Suicide is weakness.

What's this?

Give it back!

Your girlfriend?

That drug addict?

You broke our rules.

Why are you here?

I'm a drug addict.

And I want to change myself.

I want to beat my addiction.

So I promise

to be humble and disciplined.

I'll follow the rules.

And I won't challenge the authority

of the centre leaders.

I don't believe you.

This place is worse

than f***ing jail!

The door is always open.

And that's the worst part.

Run for your life!

THE 2ND NATIONAL

TRIATHLON IN PIASTW

Morning! Am I not too late?

- To do what?

- To enter the competition.

Are you with a club?

No. Been training on my own for a year.

Want to see how I'm doing.

You know this is a triathlon?

Yep.

- Swimming.

- 700 metres.

- Running.

- 5 kilometres.

And?

- Cycling?

- 20 kilometres.

You wanna race on this?

Your name?

Hi!

Jurek?

How are you doing?

- You look great.

- Thank you.

What brings you here?

I got a therapeutic task

to have some fun.

And your idea of fun is waiting

outside a hospital in a blizzard?

No.

My idea of fun

is taking up dance classes.

The problem is

I don't have a partner.

Me?

Tango!

Let the music guide you.

And strings...

This is the tango.

Closer. Cheek to cheek.

Closer!

This is a passionate dance.

Grab the shoulders!

Grab the hips!

Lead your partner confidently

so she can trust you!

That's right...

Closer, closer.

That's it!

Lively!

Passion!

Passionately.

Close to each other.

Grab her!

Look her in the eye!

Lower your leg slowly.

And turn.

Grab him by the hips.

The shoulders.

That's right.

Less, not more.

Moderately but passionately.

Move your hips...

Passionately...

- You were doing great.

- Thanks. You too.

Jesus...

Are you all right?

You should go now.

I don't want you to get into trouble.

Ewa!

It's fine. I had a great time.

See you.

You let them cut our hair?

What's going on, Jurek?

Can you hear me?

I'm talking to you!

What did I do to you

that you want

to starve me to death?

I'm done with you!

And the life I had!

You'll never run away from me.

I understand your head is f***ed up.

But you're gonna pay for the mirror.

It's fine, mum.

Need to talk to you.

It's Krzysiek.

Will you talk to him?

- Why?

- I can't.

- You argued or what?

- These are the rules.

Sonny, who's gonna know?

Me.

I'm very sorry, baby.

I really am.

We'll do all we can.

Hi.

Hi.

What's your name?

Come on.

What's her name?

She's not your daughter.

Any confessions to make?

Grski?

You want to make a confession?

No. Why?

Because you're lying.

You went to Legnica.

To visit my mum.

I saw my ex, a junkie, in hospital.

But she's brain-dead.

We didn't even talk.

It doesn't matter.

In this illness,

you can't trust yourself.

You can't trust your emotions.

If you want to stay here,

go shave your head.

Put on a uniform

and sit on the floor.

I've been here for two bloody years.

So what?

You know nothing about yourself.

No, no.

F*** this!

Grayna Nowakowska

passed away on 21 November 1986.

Jurek! Get in!

Look.

You threw in the towel.

I thought it over.

I've come back.

You're not consistent

even in giving up.

So why the f*** talk

about therapy?

What are you trying to tell me?

That you're gonna manage?

What nonsense is that?!

So if someone in Legnica

had given you drugs yesterday,

wouldn't you have taken them?

You want me to believe it?

You need a goal.

I have a goal.

Do you? Enlighten me.

Before, my head was...

I had f***ed up thoughts.

All I wanted

was to get back with my ex.

That drug addict.

When she was dying...

I saw our daughter.

And everything changed.

This I can believe.

But I won't accept shaving...

Been through this crap

too many times.

Either I just return or...

Be honest with me.

Aren't you afraid?

Don't you feel f***ing scared

that you won't get out of this?

You got yourself in a load of crap.

You can't imagine how bad this is.

This is a terrible, serious disease.

Only world champions

beat their drug addiction.

You must be strong.

You must be the best.

You can spend the night

in the centre.

I need a decision in the morning.

You know what this is?

It means you managed.

Certificate of Recognition

Wow, execs in my humble abode.

- You f***ing put on some weight.

- Look in the mirror, prick!

Come on up!

And that idiot yells:

'Shoot, don't run!'

You yelled yourself

you'd set dogs loose on him.
