A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
KURIER
Go and ask the managing editor.
So you don't know anything?
Good morning.
- Good morning.
- Mrs. Teresa?
- Yes.
- Brylski, managing editor.
I'm looking for Piotr.
Can you tell me where he is?
- He's not at home?
- I wouldn't come here if he was.
Right. My bad. I'm sorry.
So?
He wasn't here today.
Did he had any errands to run in town?
You don't know
what your people do?
He's working
on Grochowiak's case, right?
I'll check this for you.
Please, sit down.
I'm going to ask assistant editor,
all right?
- Did you see Zarzycki?
- He wasn't here today.
It's his wife. He's not been home
since yesterday.
I don't know what to tell her.
Tell her to go back home
and wait for him.
He's working on the topic
of the hospital expansion.
- Hello!
- Hello!
- Can you do it on the spot?
- Yes, for two hundred.
All right.
Kazik
We both know you were right,
but I had no choice.
If I were right,
my daughter would be alive.
But at least, I can look at myself
in the mirror.
This town will never accept
the truth about the forest.
What about you?
Have you accepted it?
When you were to publish the text,
I was to choose:
I'd tell them where you print
and you'd get a short prison sentence
or you'd get five years.
- You got a year and a half.
- You repeat yourself.
Have you finished?
I reached out to some people.
- The apparatus wasn't involved.
- In what?
- In your daughter's death.
- You know shit!
- And you?
- Thanks to you I spent
18 months in prison!
Where did Justyna get dollars from?
I've heard you were leaving.
Do me a favor and fuck off.
- I'll leave you here, OK?
- OK.
Wait!
I can take you to a place
I've never taken anyone to.
Do you want?
And?
Do you like it?
Yes. I envy you for this place.
Since now, it's yours, too.
Do you come here often?
Too often.
Almost every day.
What do you do here?
Nothing. I sit
and think.
Sometimes, I draw.
Do you want some?
What do you think about?
You ask many questions.
I'm interested.
About you.
What about me?
I think about you.
What is this?
I got it after my mother died.
You live with your father?
Yes.
But he's not worth mentioning.
- Why?
- Because he left her.
When she fell ill,
he started to disappear, he would leave.
He said it's for work,
but I know he didn't have to.
He left us.
Maybe he loved her so much
he couldn't look at her suffering?
No. He was just weak.
He still is.
She must have been very pretty.
How do you know?
If you climbed these trees,
you'd find initials of people
who were here during the war.
- They were sitting in the trees?
- No.
They stood on the ground,
but the trees've grown
and the initials went up
together with the bark.
Trees don't grow like that.
Who were these people?
Nobody talks about it.
My dad wanted to write about it
but they didn't let him.
Why don't you want anyone
to see us together?
They would never get off my back.
Why?
I'm an honor student.
Do you know how they call me?
Tight-ass.
Do you know why I'm like this?
Once I get my diploma, I'm getting out
of this shithole forever.
But first you'll go
to a disco with me, OK?
Give me that.
Some of them I inherited from my aunt.
This one's interesting.
Elsa Kep Koepke.
It looks like a forest.
Though, this could be her hair.
- She's German, right?
- Yes.
Sit down.
Where were you knocking around?
I've found this at the butcher's.
The murdered whore
rented a room from him.
- How do you know?
- I'm not sure.
Probably from Grochowiak's wife.
- You've seen her?
- She knew he cheated on her
and where the other lived.
And this is the best.
The butcher and Grochowiak
trained at the same Sports Center.
The butcher was a boxer.
And he's a southpaw.
What?
He's left-handed.
- With this knife?
- I don't know.
You have connections.
Let them make the tests.
Look.
You know what my father told me?
No, I don't know.
If you pursue a goal at any cost,
be sure, you will be unhappy
when you achieve it.
If you don't give them this,
I'll do it my way.
I'll give it to them.
- What's the butcher's name?
- He's got a family?
- I only talked to his daughter.
A bit retarded and pigeon-toed.
Meet me in the newsroom
in the afternoon.
Piotr!
It's good you came to me with this.
Teresa!
If this is a butcher's knife,
it has shed a lot of blood.
Yeah.
It will be difficult
to separate human blood.
- And the blade?
- What?
Does the blade match the cut?
Are you joking? I can't do such things
without prosecutor's order.
Go to him and he'll give me an order.
That's how it works.
- Bullshit.
- Don't touch!
Or it will be useless as an evidence.
Grochowiak was stabbed by a left-handed?
Yes.
- And this could be this knife.
- Give it to me.
But it didn't have to be.
DISTRICT COUR
What story do you have?
Can we talk somewhere else?
I have 20 minutes
before a trial, not more.
Ms Halinka! Is Marek still here?
I'll go and see.
I need him here.
And you know all this
from a hotel whore?
Yes.
Since when do you
believe prostitutes, Wanycz?
And where's the knife?
I've got it.
You've got it?
Don't hope for a retrial.
I can't afford this kind of foolishness.
It's better for him to stay in prison.
He gets his medicines and care.
There are things
which should be left alone.
You of all people should know about it.
- Good morning.
- Morning.
Hey!
You scared the hell out of me.
How are you?
I'm sorry.
This case has absorbed me completely!
I don't know
An innocent person is in prison.
An innocent guy is imprisoned.
And you're imprisoned
in our marriage, right?
You have two months to fall out of love
and finish this.
If marriage isn't a bond,
the child sure is.
I don't want to hear about Grochowiak,
do you understand?
Now, leave.
Bring me my things.
Kulik from the crime unit
will be here in a minute.
A good professional.
He ran the case.
Give him the knife.
I don't want to hear about it anymore.
But young Zarzycki is off the case.
- Hello, Marek!
- Hello.
This is my friend, a reporter.
He's got some in Grochowiak's case.
Shit! I have to go.
So, tell me.
Slowly and clearly like a professor.
I'm all ears.
- Medical Examiner office.
- Who is it?
- Docent Wawycz from Infections.
I'm putting you through.
- Hello?
- It's me.
The thing I showed you
should come back.
- Officially?
- Yes.
I'll be in touch.
Without chairman Grochowiak
we feel like orphans.
He was a great organizer.
A man with vision.
Here.
This was right, 1979.
He organized a memorial.
- 35 thousand people attended.
- Really impressive.
- We'd like to print this.
- Of course.
One more thing.
Do you remember a boxer
You mean a pugilist.
He trained here at the end of the 50s.
He was a good prospect.
- And what?
- Nothing.
- He vanished like many others.
- Did he know the chairman?
Comrade, we all knew each other.
We were one big family.
I see.
Thank you.
You've forgotten the pictures.
Right.
Hold on! I have something
interesting for you.
These're pics of our swimmers section.
Look at the group from 1962.
The beautiful girl, the second one
on the left is Yes?
She became the chairman's wife.
That's Helena!
A beautiful woman, indeed.
You're looking at the girl
who committed suicide?
Her mother brought her here
last year, but
The girl didn't like it.
In sports, you need to be really devoted
to achieve something.
Give me one.
Tomorrow you're buying ciggies.
- See you.
- Bye.
- What have you done again?
- Why?
A man from the
- Mom, I didn't do anything.
- Hello, Kinga!
We'll talk about it later.
Now, go.
Go!
Can we talk alone?
Close the door, please.
Sit down.
I have an offer for you.
You will tell me
what happened to Justyna,
and you won't face
any consequences.
I'll learn everything anyway,
but I won't help you then.
You won't tell her?
I won't, you can be sure.
I didn't know this would happen.
That she would do this.
What do you mean?
That she would jump.
If I knew
I would think of something.
We were at that disco.
I mean, me, Agnieszka and Elwira.
Justyna came in new clothes from Pewex.
She didn't look like her.
Where did she get the money from?
Don't be afraid, tell me.
She got it from one man.
What man?
From the Sports Center,
the chairman.
Drewicz, shit! 45'13".
Too bad.
You won't win the Olympics!
Matwiejska! What is this?!
Your name is Drewicz?
- Yes.
- What time do you finish tomorrow?
At 2 p.m.
Sometimes, when he liked a girl,
he took her to his office.
He looked at her body
and touched
This kind of thing.
Wait!
Is it true what they say
about Grochowiak?
What?
That he invites girls to his office.
How the hell am I supposed to know?
Maybe you've heard something.
Why are you interested?
I'm just asking.
You need money?
Once one girl told me
she was in his office.
And what?
He asked her to show her figure
from various sides.
He looked and let her go.
What was he looking at?
Tight-ass, you must be fucking retarded.
Give me this.
Well, well.
Have you been in his office?
One time.
What about Justyna?
I don't know. Maybe she was once.
Hello.
You look beautiful.
Will you dance with me?
I'll be right back.
Will you wait for me?
Yes.
I was dancing with that one from 8D.
He had horrible onion breath.
Tight-ass has got gussied up!
- Did you see her?
- Yeah, I see.
Where did you get the clothes from?
Tight-ass, I'm fucking talking to you!
You know that she danced
with the boy you like?
- What's his name?
- Karol.
When a teacher asks you,
you answer immediately.
- Let me go.
- First, answer the question.
Where are the clothes from?
- From Pewex, of course.
- This I know.
- Where did you get the cash?
- Maybe she got an extra swim class.
Too bad.
Wait!
You showed him the breaststroke
or the butterfly?
You fucking bitch!
Let me go!
- You screwed him?
- Let me go!
- Did you?
- Fuck off!
Give me your brush!
Give me the fucking brush!
We will see.
Leave me alone!
Agnieszka, leave her alone,
for fuck's sake!
Leave her alone!
Let's go.
I'm sorry for the late hour,
but I'm leaving the town.
I've found it in the forest.
Keep them, please.
- Is it his?
- Yes.
- What's in it?
- Nothing bad.
Don't be afraid.
Thank you.
You know,
I understand your son.
I know how he felt.
Me too
Good night.
Where's everyone?
At the bar having a drink.
- It's Brylski's birthday.
- Shit, I forgot.
- And you?
- I don't drink. You forgot?
- Did you see Zarzycki?
- He was here,
waiting for you for two hours.
- Hey!
- Hey!
May I come in?
Sure.
Are you moving out?
No, I'm taking his things out.
I wanted to say sorry.
For what?
Well
I shouldn't have let this happen.
There's nothing to be sorry about.
If I didn't want it, I wouldn't do it.
So I'm guilty, as well.
I know you have your life
and someone's waiting for you.
But thank you.
You are thanking me?
What are you thanking me for?
Thanks to you I felt young again.
But now, our paths will part, all right?
Yes.
Yes, of course.
Now, our paths will part.
Bye.
When they put him on my table,
he barely fit.
I made a cut with a scalpel
and he goes puff
- I'll join you in a moment.
Hello, Witek! Hard day?
Give me a shot of vodka,
very cold. They pay.
- What's up?
- Same old stuff.
It's always dull
in the middle of the week.
One more, please.
- Zbyszek!
- Yes, I'm coming.
- How are the girls?
- A bad thing never dies.
Witek, listen
Well, you know
- You're leaving?
- Yes.
I'm catching the last train
to the border and wait there.
Why now?
I can't stand it any longer.
I'll leave the car at the train station.
The spare keys.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you
about Drewicz's daughter.
- I thought it'd be better this way.
- I know.
Maybe you were right.
I've cleaned up after Zarzycki.
Watch him!
He has a fucking talent for trouble.
Call me when you find her.
- Take care!
- Bye!
Witek! The militiaman
that's been here lately
Be careful about him.
Nadia said he's crazy.
Nadia?
- Have you seen her?
- For a few minutes.
- She came for her things.
- When was it?
An hour ago?
I'm coming, I'm coming!
What do you want?
Wait, you
Help! Help!
- What is he doing?!
- Shut up!
Nadia, open! I know you are there!
- I told you, she left.
- I want to help. I'll give you money.
I'm sorry.
Don't come closer.
Who did this to you?

Well
I shouldn't have let this happen.
There's nothing to be sorry about.
If I didn't want it, I wouldn't do it.
So I'm guilty, as well.
I know you have your life
and someone's waiting for you.
But thank you.
You are thanking me?
What are you thanking me for?
Thanks to you I felt young again.
But now, our paths will part, all right?
Yes.
Yes, of course.
Now, our paths will part.
Bye.
When they put him on my table,
he barely fit.
I made a cut with a scalpel
and he goes puff
- I'll join you in a moment.
Hello, Witek! Hard day?
Give me a shot of vodka,
very cold. They pay.
- What's up?
- Same old stuff.
It's always dull
in the middle of the week.
One more, please.
- Zbyszek!
- Yes, I'm coming.
- How are the girls?
- A bad thing never dies.
Witek, listen
Well, you know
- You're leaving?
- Yes.
I'm catching the last train
to the border and wait there.
Why now?
I can't stand it any longer.
I'll leave the car at the train station.
The spare keys.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you
about Drewicz's daughter.
- I thought it'd be better this way.
- I know.
Maybe you were right.
I've cleaned up after Zarzycki.
Watch him!
He has a fucking talent for trouble.
Call me when you find her.
- Take care!
- Bye!
Witek! The militiaman
that's been here lately
Be careful about him.
Nadia said he's crazy.
Nadia?
- Have you seen her?
- For a few minutes.
- She came for her things.
- When was it?
An hour ago?
I'm coming, I'm coming!
What do you want?
Wait, you
Help! Help!
- What is he doing?!
- Shut up!
Nadia, open! I know you are there!
- I told you, she left.
- I want to help. I'll give you money.
I'm sorry.
Don't come closer.
Who did this to you?
