- The film tells the story of the Prussian family von Krauss living in the Puck area, as well as the love between the Kashubian boy Mateusz and the German aristocrat Marita and is set between 1900 and 1945. The script depicts the complicated fate of three nations inhabiting the former Polish-German borderland in northern Kashubia, where the line of the border in Versailles after the First World War divided not only the land but also the people of Germans, Kashubs, and Poles, causing riots and often hatred. The script goes through four decades showing the complex attitudes and choices that people have to make here. Prussian anti-Polishism fought with Kashubian patriotism, which in 1939 ended in mass murder committed in thousands of Kaszubians in forests near Piasnica.

- Eugeniusz Kwiatkowski. There is probably no politician and economic activist in Polish history with such great merits for the country's development. And although most have heard of his accomplishments, there is no other figure so forgotten. He was born at the end of the 19th century near Zbaraz in the Borderlands, and died in 1974 in Gierek's Poland. He was Pilsudski's legionnaire, participated in the war of 1920, integrated Poland after the partitions, was a minister and deputy prime minister, developed the economy and cared for the Polish coin, prepared for a clash with Germany, experienced the humiliation of internment in Romania, the drama of his son's death in the September campaign, the euphoria of the first years after World War II and the defeat of real socialism in the Stalinist version. And then 25 years of silence, condemnation to political and social non-existence. And finally, a giggle of history - just before his death, Gierek's team tries to make him their patron. He died in 1974, as the communist newspapers reported in several sentences on the following pages. Where did he come from and what was the phenomenon of man, whose initiatives are the basis of the Polish economy to this day? Why was he so ruthlessly eliminated from public life, despite merits that even the communists could not question? The period in which all the tensions in Eugeniusz Kwiatkowski's rich life focus is the time between 1945, when, against all odds, he decided to return to Poland, motivated by the will to work for his homeland, and 1948, when he was finally removed from public life, forbidden to travel. to the coast and to the beloved Gdynia. This short period, which brings together all Polish dilemmas, is the basic canvas of the narrative.
