The anniversary party stops to listen to some news

Set in 1982 communist Poland, a couple celebrates their wedding anniversary with their closest friends. But a simple accident creates an unexpected and terrifying turn of events and in a matter of minutes, life long relationships are destroyed.

As Waldek, the cynical pragmatist of the group...

Toasting friendship

A joke.

The punchline

A shocking news report

Talking politics

Reunion

Old friends

The party's over
