Plot

edit

The film tells the story of the rise and fall of Nikodem "Nikoś" Skotarczyk. Nikoś was born in Pruszcz Gdański, a small town in Pomerania, to a father who abused and beat him. As he grows up, he gathers around him a gang of delinquents, led by his good friend "Komo". At first, Nikoś and his gang engage in petty crime, but later they begin stealing cars from Germany and selling them in Poland. This business yields them enormous profits and turns Nikoś into the underworld ruler of the Polish coastal area.

Nikoś's story is told from the perspectives of those surrounding him: his friends, family members, and women.
