I read other viewers' comments in hopes of learning a little more about what I had seen when I ran this film on my DVD player. It helped a little, but my own lack of any knowledge of the Polish language is a nearly insuperable barrier. I think some of those viewers have more knowledge of Polish and maybe a little less of English. This would apply as well to the writers of the captions, which are often rather unidiomatic. I say this in great respect, always admiring Europeans who have such skill with English. Anyway I found the movie confusing, jumping from one situation to another rather abruptly.Two very innocent young men hire prostitutes, are unable to pay the fee, and get mixed up with a group of thugs. Everything follows from there, including even some Keystone cops types and a mad car chase. Those classic movie elements are universally understood but are not quite enough to have made this a good evening's entertainment for me and my friends.
