NETFLIX PRESENTS
Yes, Magda Grot.
The order is in my name.
At 12:35.
No, it's you who doesn't understand. Down to the minute.
No, it's you who has to listen.
Today has to be perfect. It's been planned to the minute.
No delays.
What do you mean, "ten minutes"? Do you know what I can do in ten minutes?
Ma'am, I am calm.
At 12:35 and not a second later.
You'll personally make sure it happens. Thank you.
-What's going on? -Get up.
Invitations?
Approved.
Sound system?
Magda, relax. Everything's been ready for four days.
What about Zula?
Is she panicking?
Not yet, but she might soon.
How many coffees?
She's on her third.
Listen, just remember to…
LATRICANINE KRZYSZTOF MAĆKOWSKI, KRAKÓW
Magda? Hello?
Those awful dogs again. I'll be there soon.
Thanks. You're a lifesaver, as always.
Sure thing.
Time is money.
-Is it true? -What?
About the boss. Is it really today?
I don't know a thing.
Fingers crossed!
-Hello. -Hello.
Report.
Relax, you're just in time to save us.
-What is it this time? -Everything.
Nothing is ready. Who came up with the balloons?
-You did. -Nonsense! Is it a kids' party? Finally!
Zula, you are absolutely right.
Take the balloons away right now. What the hell?
Give it to me.
Where have you been? You forgot to add Todd to the VIP list.
Double honey espresso for the director and still alpine glacier water for Todd.
Coming right up!
Gentlemen. Space, please.
Space, you idiot!
I emailed you Todd's schedule this morning.
He's not on this list because he has his own list.
-Have you seen him today? -He's in great shape.
-He doesn't look his age. -And the way he moves!
Apart from discopathy, diabetes, hypertension, kidney failure,
and an enlarged liver, he's completely healthy.
He's so lean.
And handsome.
-My treasure! -Water from an alpine glacier for the boy.
-Hi. -Who's such a cute doggy? Say hello.
That's it. Perfect. I don't know what I'd do without you.
I don't even want to imagine. Magda, you're irreplaceable.
-Nobody else is as good with Todd as you. -With Todd?
With everything. This place wouldn't work without you.
I know it. I can see all of it. And Todd can see it, right?
Come, give me a kiss, please.
That's right. He's looking around.
All right.
Are you peeing? Come on, pee!
-Here or there? -Hey.
Hi.
Remember the plan?
Muffin, you texted and emailed it to me.
You added it to the shared calendar and stuck it on the fridge.
So you remember or not?
Just kidding. I remember.
If today isn't perfect and, heaven forbid, you don't get the promotion,
then you won't increase the viewership of the main channel by 8% in two years,
you won't become a member of the board, and our wedding will have to be postponed.
As will having a baby
because we'll start trying exactly 18 months after the wedding.
See? I know your plan by heart.
-Sorry. -My plan?
Our plan. And the most important thing. No improvisations, ever.
That's right.
LATRICANINE KRZYSZTOF MAĆKOWSKI, KRAKÓW
-Why are you up so early? -Can we go to school now?
Show me your tongue. Not like that. Like at the doctor's.
-What are you doing? -Checking that it's really you.
Come on, Dad.
What happened to, "Five more minutes, Dad"?
Or, "Dad, can I stay at home and play with Trombone?"
I've got my own stuff to do.
Since when do you have your own stuff?
Like a real man.
Careful, real man. Don't get food on your mustache.
This is cringey. They'll laugh at me again.
Do you have to walk me to school?
I don't have to. But I really want to.
I'm going alone from here.
-Is this why you wanted to come early? -Shush, Dad!
Will you introduce me?
Trombone. All right, good luck.
Where is this?
What's up, junior?
Isn't Daddy walking you to class?
Loser.
Thank you to our guests, board members,
journalists, partners, and directors.
Are you sure that's everyone?
And of course, our sponsors.
Exactly.
Nerves.
Together with our programming director, Zula Kot, we thank you for watching us.
POLISH NINJA
GOLIATH FIGHTS
Everything okay?
Yes, right here, to me. One more, please.
That was great!
-Great job, well done. -Thank you.
-Where's Todd? -Everything is under control.
Please join us for a photo.
Here. One more time.
Surprise!
My dears!
For the most wonderful boss. They're almost as beautiful as you.
You've worked hard. You deserve it.
My dears, I really did not expect this.
-How long has she known? -At least a week.
What can I say? We did it.
We made it happen. It was a joint effort.
We couldn't have done it without you, Zula.
In these circumstances,
after such a spectacular start to the new schedule,
I've something to say.
-There will be tears. -Got it.
-Give it to me. -Be careful.
As you know,
TV is… my whole life.
I've given everything to it.
But nothing lasts forever.
That's why today I want to say that it's time…
to make room for the young.
It's time…
it's time for a short break.
And 50 is the best time
to finally think about offspring!
-After all, Todd needs a sibling. -Yes, Todd!
But don't worry, my dears. I won't leave you on your own.
There is a person among us who fully deserves to take my place.
Magda.
Magda, only you can take my place.
Magdalena…
Formalities.
Oh no!
What's going on?
What is it?
Oh my God! Todd!
Todd!
Don't just stand there! Resuscitate him! Oh my God!
-You were supposed to look after him! -I did.
You looked after him? Looked after him?
-Call an ambulance! -I'm calling!
Did you do it on purpose? Are you in such a hurry to take my place?
You knew my heart would break if something happened to him.
You're fired. Take your things and leave!
But, Zula--
Don't talk to me!
I'll make sure you never work in TV again.
You're done in this industry, my dear.
Yeah. And all in all…
Excuse me.
-Magda! -What?
-Sorry it turned out this way. -Sorry?
I mean, the situation with Zula.
I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. I guess your plan failed.
My plan?
Just a minute.
Madzia, you're not the only one with a plan.
In mine, there's no space for a would-be programming director.
You get that, right?
Sorry, Madzia.
I'm sorry. About Todd.
I heard he was still breathing. Maybe he'll pull through.
Where's the car?
Sorry, I can't.
I got a call. The car stays.
-So what's her name? -It doesn't matter.
-Karol. -Tosia.
Short for Antonina, lovely. Does she like you?
She doesn't even know who I am.
-Don't worry. She will. -How?
Because you're a great guy with a great dog.
What should I do?
Nothing. Give her some time.
What if… she doesn't notice?
Then she's not worth waiting for.
It is what it is, and whatever will be, will be.
As always.
-Wanna go to the arcade? -I don't feel like it.
-Don't worry. You'll get over this. -Did you get over Mom's death?
-That's different. -You haven't found anyone else.
I haven't met the right person. But you're still young.
Dad, I think you need a girlfriend.
Why?
You can't live alone when I move in with Tosia.
We have to find you someone.
Race you down!
Trombone's winning!
Trombone!
Come on, up! Right, left!
Right, left.
Hi, boys! Nice to see you.
Come over for dinner. I'm making roast boar.
You know that young men need a nutritious diet.
-I do. -Dad's a great chef.
Daddy's great at everything. But he also needs time to do other things.
-Irena. -You have a lot of responsibilities.
I manage.
I help Dad.
I'm talking about something else.
If you really want to help, take Trombone for a walk.
He has terrible diarrhea today.
Yep.
Maybe you should take him to the vet.
Thanks.
Do you really want me to meet someone?
Dad, how big is our apartment?
It's 137.5 square meters. With the balcony, without the workshop.
And the guest room?
It's 20 square meters. Why do you want to know?
Homework.
Dinner is served, buddy.
Does Trombone like other animals?
He doesn't like cats.
Is that homework too?
Finish it later.
ROOM TO RENT. SHARED KITCHEN AND BATHROOM.
SAVE / EDIT
WOMEN ONLY. NOT FROM WARSAW.
Done.
What's this?
The famous casserole à la Zygmunt.
What does Zula like? Zula likes to be right,
and Todd.
But Todd's gone.
I was fired because of Todd. Maybe I can get my job back thanks to him?
DACHSHUND PARADE
Wait.
I think I've got it.
Can I use your computer?
Sure. It's in reception.
The Dachshund Parade is an annual event celebrating…
The Dachshund Parade in Kraków. Todd almost won it once.
Apparently, he lost by a neck.
Ever since, Zula has wanted to do a story on the organizers' incompetence.
But they don't allow any media. It's a closed circle.
And you want to get in?
It's supposed to be top secret, but I did some digging.
I found the organizers and… bingo!
That's lucky.
There's a room to rent at the same address listed on one of the couch surfing sites.
"Women only. Not from Warsaw."
Sounds like your kind of challenge.
KRAKÓW CENTRAL TRAIN STATION
Read.
"If you ever in your sleep feel
that my eyes no longer look at you with love…
know, that I stopped living."
Beautiful, but long.
What do you mean, "long"?
Count the letters your way and charge the highest rate.
Excuse me!
Hello.
Break from work is it, gentlemen?
We're working on our coffee, ma'am.
Could one of you take me to this address?
My queen, it's so close.
Take a walk. It's such a beautiful day.
Irenka?
LOVE
That's just great.
Hello, dear host!
Muhammad wouldn't come to the mountain, so the mountain came to Muhammad.
-Hi, Uncle! -Hi!
Is this for us?
Don't touch. It's for a client. Look, it's the main theme of today.
-Here's something for you. -What do you say?
Hello.
Guys, you shouldn't have.
-No problem. What are friends for? -Everyone gets a treat.
-Wait! -Trombone!
-What are you doing down there?
Take him! Hold him tight!
Where is he going?
Hold him tight!
Help!
-Hold him tight! -Help!
-Come here. -The fun is over!
LOVE
Hello. Can I help you?
Oh, for dog's sake!
Excuse me, sir!
Just a minute.
-Lost again, Mr. Albert? -Do I know you?
-Come with me, quick! -Can't you see we're busy?
But there's a child in danger!
And a dog.
Take care of him.
Slow down. Haste is degrading.
Can you walk a little faster?
It's like talking to a brick wall.
People start a second life when they feel like they've lived the first one.
I guess.
"In danger," you say?
-Hi, guys. -Hi, Rajmund.
And girls.
Hello and apologies. What am I supposed to do with you?
Want some violet juice? Zygmunt brought it from France.
Hi, Zygmunt. No, I'm on duty.
There was a wreath here. And here--
That was a client's wreath, dear. We work at the cemetery.
As Hesiod said, "No work is a disgrace."
Although, from the transcendental point of view, it depends.
-Do you wish to maintain the allegations? -Well… I know what I saw.
Logic will get you from A to B.
Imagination will take you anywhere.
Hesiod?
No, Einstein.
Ma'am, are you here about the ad? Why didn't you say so?
-Don't be upset. It's just silly jokes. -Karol!
Do you always greet guests with a horror scene?
Guests?
It's my fault.
Yesterday, I activated your old account on the room-renting website.
And I rented it. But if it's a problem…
She can't sleep at the train station.
-I'd better go. -He's right. Please stay.
-I don't want to impose. -I insist.
-I don't want to be a nuisance. -And I really… welcome you to my home.
In that case, I can't say no.
No, you can't.
Where are you from?
-Warsaw. -Come in. Welcome.
He likes you.
You think?
Our house specialty.
Violet juice, right?
What is a name, really? Zygmunt?
A name is irrelevant to being-in-itself.
According to Porphyry, the starting point should be a specific subject.
Negation of the name gives us…
Species.
And negation of the species…
Genus.
And so on, until we reach the widest possible concept.
Why don't we try this being-in-itself? My name is Magda.
Cheers.
Do you like dogs?
Yes, of course. Very much.
-What's he called? -Trombone.
He's not "called." That's his name. He's a member of the family.
It's a very nice name.
Can you stay until Saturday? We're having a parade.
Not the famous one?
That's the one. We're all involved. Trombone and I help too. Right, Trombone?
I don't think our guest is interested in that.
I used to do stuff like that at work. Organization, strategy, planning.
-I'd love to help. -That's great!
There's no need.
Besides, my good friend and her dachshund, Todd,
once almost won the prize for the best couple.
-Todd? Is that right? -Yes.
-Remember Todd? -Yes.
He tried so hard, poor thing. But it didn't work out for him.
-Everything okay? -Yes.
Thank you for the offer, but we don't need help.
What do you mean, "we don't need help"? Of course we do. We're totally behind.
Ouch!
While we're at it, we'd like to propose a new category.
That's right.
-Animal art. -Really?
Paintings and collages could be submitted.
But sculptures would get the highest scores.
That's funny.
There would be clear terms and conditions.
We don't want anyone to hope for an exhibition in Warsaw
when what's needed is functional art.
For dogs.
There are Latricanines like this one all over Warsaw.
They're exceptionally awful.
Can I take a look?
-It's really hideous. -Yeah.
Now we know you're well versed in art,
we might actually need some help.
I suggest that our new friend gets the permit from Ms. Basia.
-From the Ms. Basia? -The one and only.
Perfect. You said that you're good at organizing and arranging things.
Sure. By when?
Yesterday.
Sorry.
THE CITY OF KRAKÓW
APPLICATIONS
KRAKÓW CITY HALL
DEPARTMENT OF DIFFICULT AND VERY DIFFICULT CASES
-Good morning. -Just a moment.
It's past 9:00 a.m.
Ma'am…
you're not from here, are you?
Is that relevant?
You're in such a hurry. How about a cup of tea?
-No, thank you. -No? How about a cookie?
Again, no, thank you.
I need the main square drive-in permit for the Dachshund Parade.
The Dachshund Parade…
It's not for another five days.
All right.
You need to fill out form D--
Form D125, right?
That's right, but what's missing is--
Form F45.
Forty…
Well,
what about the permit?
That's why I'm here.
The access roads drive-through permit.
Ma'am, you'll have to get there.
Drive to the main square.
Am I right?
Without it, my hands are tied.
Right. My nail polish is ruined.
Ma'am, please come back with the permit, all right?
All right. Thank you.
As if I've nothing better to do.
KRAKÓW CITY HALL AND CITY COUNCIL THE MAYOR OF KRAKÓW
How much longer?
Haste is degrading.
Have you heard of deadlines, due dates?
Would you like some tea?
Got it.
Yes.
Right.
Unfortunately, I can't help you.
Excuse me?
You need the drive-over-curbs permit.
They're historic monuments.
Best if you go directly to the city archives located--
Okay. I'll find it.
The door.
Excuse me.
BREAK 10:30 – 10:50
It won't take much time.
How can I help?
The drive-over-curbs permit for the main square area, please.
What's the hurry? Would you like some tea?
-I don't want tea. -Why so annoyed?
I'm not annoyed. Can we just get to the point?
-And the drive-in-main-square permit? -Excuse me?
Without it, I can't issue the drive-over-curbs permit.
They are an integral part of the main square.
So, to drive into the main square, I need the drive-through-access-road permit.
To drive through access roads, I need the drive-over-curbs permit.
To drive over curbs, I need the drive-in-main-square permit.
Indeed. What don't you understand?
Go to the communications department, room 102, and find--
I know exactly who to find.
KRAKÓW CITY HALL
DEPARTMENT OF DIFFICULT AND VERY DIFFICULT CASES
-Excuse me. -Did you see that?
Back already, ma'am? So soon?
The drive-in-main-square permit, please.
Ma'am, I am so very sorry, but my hands are really tied.
In this case, I'd like to ask for a written refusal to issue the permit.
Excuse me?
With your signature and the official stamp.
I'll take it straight to your manager, and then to the media. Local and national.
Ma'am.
I don't understand why you're in such a hurry.
Just this morning, I got a phone call from your organization.
This permit is not urgent at all.
Who called?
It was a woman.
-I think her name was-- -Irenka?
Irenka, that's it. You took the words right out of my mouth.
We've discussed the color of the ID badge lanyards. Let's move on--
Done. It could've been done quicker, but there were a few obstacles.
-Well done. -Yes, well done.
-What did you say? I didn't get that. -I'm really glad it all worked out.
Good job.
Wiktor.
Invitations?
Around twenty phone calls and ten face-to-face meetings.
-It's done. -Why not email? It's easier.
We prefer a more personal approach.
Looks like you prefer to waste time.
Yes. Catering?
Done.
Almost.
Hey! Leave that! Give it back!
Hi.
Hey.
Nice…
nice day. It's a nice day today.
Would you like a sandwich, scrambled eggs, or oatmeal?
Coffee. I don't usually eat breakfast.
But they're the best.
Karol. Maybe not for everyone?
I've been thinking about sponsors. May I?
Sure.
Since you don't have any, we could make a promo video and publicize the event.
I could do it for you.
-No. -Why not?
We don't have any sponsors because we don't need them.
We like what we do.
That's why we do it for free, and we don't want to change that.
And that's why no cameras and no media.
I was just trying to help.
I appreciate it. More hot cocoa?
You have cocoa?
Why? Would you like some?
No.
Okay.
So what should I do today?
It's nice of you to ask. Today before noon, I'd really like you
to do absolutely nothing.
So how about that hot cocoa?
HOW ABOUT THIS FOR A STORY?
TO ZULA HOW ABOUT THIS FOR A STORY?
What do you want?
Can I have a look in there?
That's a no.
Are you hungry?
Do you have a special toy?
No?
Let's go out?
Trombone! Wait! Not so fast!
Trombone! Please!
Can we go back home?
Come here.
Oh no, buddy! Don't even--
Absolutely not.
No!
Well, that explains a lot.
AGE WITH GRACE STAY BEAUTIFUL
FROM KRZYSZTOF: OUR OFFICE CORNER OF BOŻEGO CIAŁA AND MEISELS
I understand being five, ten minutes late, but--
Krzysiu, it is what it is, and whatever will be, will be.
Come on, stop it…
This is your office?
Yeah. You like it? Nice, isn't it?
Nice.
Wine, dear? We're drinking wine.
No, I think it's too early for me.
We're expecting a guest. He's running late.
-There he is. Hello, Professor. -Hello.
How is your art, Krzysztof?
Could be better.
Don't give up.
I always say that one should never give up.
Miss, this is a very serious matter. We must get straight to the point.
-Red wine, please. -Yes, sir.
I've been thinking about it all night.
We have to decide what criteria to apply when dealing with rabbit dachshunds.
What?
We can't ignore the tails.
I know it's controversial and highly unconventional,
but we must include the tail.
Dachshund measuring is a very complicated and delicate matter.
What measuring?
The professor is an eminent specialist in the field of cynology.
Pleasure to meet you.
Magda Grot.
I've just been informed that the CDC has some concerns.
Someone should be here soon.
I won't make it.
Magda, I won't make it to pick up Karol from school, so maybe you could…
-You want me to go now? -I'll text you the address. Thanks.
I'll be back… soon.
Okay.
You're out.
Three, two, one…
Name the five most dangerous forest monsters.
You're out.
Do one more.
Name the best superhero powers.
Come on. Give him something easier. He's too young for superhero movies.
He watches princess movies with his old man.
Time start.
Flying.
Super speed.
Laser eyes!
Super strength.
Mind reading.
This time… you did all right.
Just this time.
That was cool. How did you know?
In my job…
I mean, in my old job, I had to know a lot about movies on TV and in theaters.
And I had to use my superpowers.
Who's the girl that was smiling at you?
-She smiled at me? You really saw it too? -Yeah!
That's Tosia. One day, we'll live together.
Do you also think I am too young?
No.
If you wanna do everything in life, you must start planning early. Let's go.
Dad says I have to wait. Things like that can't be rushed.
No wonder he's single.
Dad's single because my mom died when I was born.
-I mean… The thing is, that if that girl-- -Tosia.
Tosia.
If you really like Tosia, talk to her. Don't wait.
Will you help me?
I'll think about it.
Let's go.
Come in.
In that case, we'll need further consultations.
-Did the health inspector come? -Just left.
Sit down, child.
-Any issues? -None. Everything's fine.
-None? -None. That's good, right?
Very good.
-Focus, Krzysztof. -I'm sorry.
I'll talk to Prof. Guz and Prof. Guzman.
I think it's necessary that we settle the issue of measuring only the tails.
I think so too.
-What's he doing? -Playing a gig.
Now? During work?
We could use a break.
-Wine, please. -Coming right up.
Thank you, Professor.
-Thank you. It's been a pleasure. Goodbye. -Goodbye.
-How's school? -Okay.
"Okay"?
I forgot that you don't ask adult men about that.
Can we go home now?
-Home? Are you crazy? Today is Tuesday. -What happens on Tuesday?
Tuesday is father-and-son day.
We have zapiekanki at Nowy Square. And then death.
What?!
-Poetry reading. -Death. Would you like to come?
I'm sure Magda has her own plans. Phone.
Actually, I do have plans. But… I'd love to join you next time.
Definitely.
-Last one there eats without ketchup! -Dad!
My dearest sweetheart, you went there for a story.
I have a feeling you'll end up organizing this parade.
You know me well.
Anyone suspect anything?
Their dog. Really. He knows something's up.
Oh God.
Magda?
Anatol, he's not moving.
What's going on?
Trombone is not moving. I think he's dead.
Put the camera on.
Just as I thought. It's a muscle spasm.
He was standing upright for too long. You have to give him a massage.
But how?
I'll show you. Everything will be okay.
Touch him here. By the spine.
I can't do it.
You can. Focus. There's not much time.
But I'll hurt him.
Come on, Magda. Here.
I can't do it!
Come on.
Young Poland is death. I couldn't take Tosia there.
And what better place do you know to take a girl out? I'm listening.
To a superhero movie.
With flying, super speed, laser eyes, and mind-reading.
Aren't you both too young for that?
Magda! Trombone!
Magda!
-Is everything okay? -Yes.
Trombone!
Well, actually, Trombone…
I took Trombone for a walk earlier and--
What about that walk?
It was a lot of fun.
I'm glad you had fun.
Look who we have here.
-Daddy peel your apples for you? -And read you stories about ponies?
Don't bother him, or the apple peel might get stuck in his throat.
Finished yours already?
Don't be mean because nobody makes sandwiches for you.
What?
Say something, Adam.
I'm not hungry anyway.
All right. Let's go.
-Hello, Mr. Krzysztof! -Hello.
I have fresh plums. Perfect for a pie.
Can I try?
Of course you can. It's all-natural.
-How can you buy without trying? -Exactly.
-And? -Delicious. I'll be back.
They're good.
Hello, Ms. Janka.
-Hello, Mr. Krzysiu. -One kilogram of potatoes, please.
That's five-fifty.
It's four-fifty over there.
But mine are the best.
That's true.
How about five?
Have it your way.
-Thank you. -Thank you. Have a nice day.
-Have a good one. -Shall we go?
You are very direct.
Is that good or bad?
I don't know. It's different.
That's a weird compliment.
I should have started with
the deep chestnut of your eyes in the rays of the morning sun.
But I didn't because not everyone in this city is a poet. Right, Ms. Dorota?
Not everyone. What can you do?
-But-- -Not everyone.
Everyone's an artist, right?
I've been thinking… about the Latricanine. You shouldn't be embarrassed about it.
You've seen it yourself.
So what? Everyone in Warsaw knows what it is.
That's not the kind of fame I was hoping for.
Everyone has to start somewhere.
Being the creator of a well-known sculpture is a good start.
Listen, Magda. Since you came, it's been…
-Yes? -Somehow…
-I don't really know how to… -Go on.
Would you…?
-Yes? -Would you like to…
Would you like to…
Yes?
Would you like to be in charge of the stalls?
What stalls?
-At the parade. -Yes!
Right, the parade. I'll take care of it right away.
-That's great. -Yeah, great.
-Because there's no one-- -I know. It's okay. No problem at all.
I was afraid to ask.
-Great. It's a deal. -Yeah.
Let me untangle us.
-That's right. -Now.
Sorry. Come here, Trombone.
-Andrzej! -What?
Come here!
The stalls should go on both sides.
It's always been this way, dear.
-But according to the new plan-- -It's always this way. It's fine.
It can be better.
Madzia, why do you meddle in everything?
-Krzysio! Hold on a minute. -Yes?
Can you come here for a minute, dear?
Krzysio, Ms. Magda is trying to change the way we do things.
It's just that the flow will be better with the stalls on both sides and…
See?
…there'll be space to walk through and--
And nobody will get tangled up. By a dog, for example.
Krzyś.
Right. Gentlemen! Half of the stalls to the other side.
Michał, could you? Thanks.
Krzy--
Sit. Good dog!
Wiktor, listen. How does Karol cope with stress?
I don't know, dear. You ask very weird questions.
Why? Has he ever performed on stage in front of an audience?
In a nativity play or a poetry recitation contest?
I don't know. Why?
I have an idea.
Hold on just a minute, okay?
Hello?
Hi, Magda, it's Ola. Wait, don't hang up. It's about Zula.
Magda, you're in Kraków, right?
It's about the story. Zula gave you the green light.
You know her. She's too proud to call. Luckily, I am calling you.
Magda, you're back in the game. Congratulations!
What about Todd?
We don't know.
He's under the care of the best specialists. Don't worry.
Magda, since we're already talking, this whole thing with Dawid…
Last year, you didn't use staples. That's why it…
-Moved? -Mm-hmm.
Look.
-You're recording everything. -No.
You're a journalist.
-From a Warsaw newspaper. A tabloid. -No.
-Looking for a scoop? -No.
What's going on?
Don't worry. I'll talk to your daddy. Krzysztof!
But Dad knows everything.
-Excuse me? -He wanted Magda to record everything.
Yes. Gathering data for next year. For personal use.
Dad keeps saying how good Magda is at planning.
-She doesn't want to miss anything. -Yup.
-Wanna go for a walk with us? -Sure. Where?
-There. -Let's go.
-See you, bye. -Bye.
Thanks.
-What do you need it for? -Nothing, really.
You work in television. I looked you up when you applied.
You're kind of a big deal.
Not anymore. But I can be again.
This story is my chance. It's the most important thing to me now.
Like Tosia is for me?
Yup.
I won't tell Dad if you help me with Tosia.
-We've got a deal. -Deal.
Tell me what's going on.
I know what you can do to impress your girlfriend.
-She's not my girlfriend. -Okay, but she will be.
Can I get some treats?
Here you go.
Thanks.
Stand over there.
Do this. Sit.
Good dog.
Let go of the leash.
-Call him. -Trombone, come here!
Come, Trombone!
Heel!
Good dog!
Good. Trombone!
Speak!
Here you go.
Call him.
Come here! Trombone!
Perform at the parade and Tosia will fall for you.
Invite her.
That's what I'm afraid of.
What are you doing? Trombone.
Dad, I'm gonna perform at the parade!
You want to help me with the opening?
No, Trombone and Karol will perform together.
-What is this? Some kind of a bet? -I'd like to try.
You don't have to prove anything to anyone.
There'll be people with years of experience, and you're little--
-Thanks for believing in me. -Trombone will listen.
-Karol knows what he's doing. -I do?
It'll be great. You'll see.
-But he… -"But he" what?
-See you. -Bye.
What a cute dog.
Come on! Let it go!
-Bingo! Let it go! He'll destroy it. -Calm down, ma'am.
-Bingo! -Oh no!
Oh my gosh!
-Oh no! -Oh my gosh!
Magda!
What are you working on? The parade is almost ready.
I'm just double-checking.
That's you, alright.
Can you keep an eye on Trombone? I'm taking Karol to Wiktor's.
They're going to a gig, and Karol will stay for a sleepover.
For one night or the whole week?
It's just breakfast and a few other things.
Breakfast?
Yeah, for tomorrow. So?
-No problem. -Thanks. Karol!
-Can I go on my own? -No, you can't.
My pillow!
What?
His pillow.
Karol, hurry up! Wiktor won't wait forever.
Right, the pillow.
Karol! Slow down!
Karolek! Slow down, please.
You'll hurt yourself.
Magda?
Why did you leave the door open?
What?
Trombone!
Where's Trombone?
-Trombone! -Trombone!
Trombone!
Have you seen a dachshund with a little beard--
No, we haven't. Sorry.
-I asked you to look after him! -I did.
-Why didn't you close the door? -You didn't!
How can you get all the permits in one day yet lose a dog in ten minutes?
-Put the phone down. Be useful! -I'm putting notices on forums!
Forums-shmorums!
-Wait! -Trombone!
Trombone!
Did you get that?
I did. A car accident involving a dog on Reymont Street.
-Excuse me! -Should I call an ambulance or a vet?
Where?
On Reymont Street.
Mr. Albert. Again?
Do I know you?
Magda, breathe. Sit down.
What's going on?
Dogs keep haunting me.
Since when?
Since forever.
When I was little, a dachshund bit me in front of other kids, and they laughed.
Since then, I've always felt that dogs want to hurt me.
But it looks like I'm the one hurting them.
You're not. It was an accident.
I killed one. Or almost killed, who knows?
And now Trombone. I'm sorry!
Maybe you just have too much on your plate.
That's who I am.
Bad excuse. I'm a single father.
If I lived like you, I'd have gone crazy by now.
So what am I supposed to do?
Sometimes you have to accept what is going on and not fight it.
You can't control everything.
And that's enough?
Unfortunately not.
You must jump in the river from the Dębnicki Bridge,
get the sword, and kill the dragon with it.
Behind the dragon, there's a golden chest with solutions to all your problems.
Okay. Forget everything I said. I need you to be… proactive.
We must find Trombone.
"There's a stray dachshund at Jordan Park." Let's go?
This is Jordan Park!
Trombone!
-Have you seen a dachshund-- -No, sorry.
Trombone!
My sweet Trombone! What happened?
Where did you go? My God!
Where were you, Trombone?
Nothing to be afraid of.
Go on. Don't be scared.
Trombone, shall we show Magda the special place?
Come on.
And my doggie will be clean. Who was dirty and now is clean?
Jeez, watch out!
So he likes swimming? He's not gonna drown, right?
No way. He just gets in and out.
You have water here.
CITY GUARD
Can't you see the sign?
We're not doing anything wrong.
Poor dog.
You know how many tickets I've issued for spitting and other things?
-Leave it. -The sign shows a person, not a dog. Yes?
A ban is a ban. I don't make the rules.
We're very sorry. We didn't notice. Please write the ticket or whatever, and…
I'll get the dog, and we'll go.
-Shush, please. -No way. We're not paying.
So you'd rather come with me?
Trombone!
You know you shouldn't have paid, right?
I try to avoid trouble.
I've been thinking about what you said about my sculpture.
Maybe it really wasn't the worst start.
Of course it wasn't.
But if you take part in any competitions in the future,
first read the terms and conditions.
I didn't have the time.
Someone had recommended me, and I got straight to work.
I misunderstood…
Okay. Next time, I'll read the terms and conditions for you.
-I mean, if we see each other, of course. -Of course.
-Because… I'm really good at contracts. -I've no doubt about that.
-I got an internship in Vienna. -In Vienna.
How do you know?
Vienna. The city of artists, imperial-royal monarchy.
Congratulations! When are you going? What are you waiting for?
For a sign that I still can do it, I guess.
You know what?
Somebody once told me that you can't control everything in life.
That… you have to let go of some things and stop fighting them.
-He sounds like a wise man. -You could say that.
I bet he was from Kraków.
Unfortunately, yes.
The final touch.
You're the co-creator of the duck à la Kraków.
-It's beautiful. -And almost ready.
I'm so hungry.
Ready in less than three hours.
Do you know the secret of great cuisine? Patience.
That's not for me.
Do you have any Kraków recipes for 15-second meals?
Excuse me.
You spent the whole 15 seconds choosing this.
I've never seen you this patient before.
It's my specialty.
Okay.
Sometimes,
but only sometimes…
it's nice not to be in a hurry.
Do you really never slow down?
Never join a… "no cell phones" yoga class in the forest?
I thought the "slow life" was popular in Warsaw.
Somehow, I've never had the chance.
In that case, I'm inviting you to a crash course.
What? No.
You're sitting on a terrace. You take a sip of wine.
You look at Kraków.
You're making fun of me, but… my job really is my whole life.
I have nothing else.
If I don't have a goal, then…
I feel like I don't exist and… nobody needs me.
But you're right. Sometimes it's good to see things from a different perspective.
Come with me.
Come on. Don't be scared.
Is it finished?
Yes.
I think…
I think so.
Why?
May I?
Careful, it's heavy.
-How? -Like this.
It fits.
LET'S RUSH TO LOVE
I knew it.
I'm done for today.
What do you mean, Zygmunt?
You're beaming. You have this glow around you.
You're in love!
Excuse me?
Listen. We can argue about the idea of love itself.
But this is something you can't hide. What did you plan for today?
Do I have to plan something?
There's always some… madness in love.
And in madness, there's always some reason.
That's why I don't lose hope.
Wait! What am I supposed to plan?
At least buy flowers!
You sculptor, you!
-Oh, junior! -Junior!
How was your breakfast?
Do you like dogs?
-Yes. -Are you free on Saturday?
Magda!
You look nice.
Nice nightgown.
Thanks.
Karol wants to practice some more. It's all he talked about last night.
Okay. I'll… go get dressed.
Magda.
You have to be careful.
He hasn't dated anyone for a while, and he likes you.
Or we'll have to have a serious talk.
Okay. I'll be back in a minute.
-Hello. -Hello.
Hello.
Yes? Can I get you anything?
-I need a bouquet. -Right. What kind?
Like, something…
Warsaw style.
What style?
Trombone!
Focus. One more time!
Trombone!
Trombone! Come here.
He's jumping at you because he's happy.
If you turn your back and ignore him, it'll be easier for him to calm down.
Trombone!
It's pointless.
Why?
Everyone will be looking at me. Tosia will be there.
You invited her?
And? Are you nervous?
No, but I'll never be the best of the best.
But you still have time. I'll be there during the show to help you.
-Do you promise? -I promise.
So? One more time?
Go on, then. Call him.
Trombone!
Wonderful!
Hello.
Hello. So you recognized me. It's okay. I'm here in a private capacity.
-Excuse me? -Dawid.
Krzysztof. What's this about?
-I'm here to see Magda. -How do you mean?
I mean, I'm her fiancé.
Yes.
Come in.
So she didn't tell you about me.
That's so like Madzia.
Wife?
She's dead.
I'm sorry.
-What are you doing here? -I had to see you, muffin.
-Don't call me "muffin." -We'll go. Come on, Karol.
-No, Krzysiek, wait. -Thanks, man.
I've missed you.
How did you even find me?
You know that I know all your passwords. I saw your booking. That's it, sweetie.
Don't call me that.
It's a nice place.
Nice.
You've succeeded again, Madzia.
Everyone at work is talking about you. Even Zula. She can't stop
talking about you, and I can't stop thinking about you.
I did a stupid thing.
Let's forget it.
For you.
I got scared.
I got scared of my feelings for me… for you.
Of whether I could make it on my own on TV.
And you… you've always had my back, Madzia.
I got lost without you.
You said there was no place for me in your plan.
Now there is.
I mean,
there always was. Don't give up on us so easily, sweetie.
Okay.
Listen, Dawid.
I don't want to be with you. I don't like anything about you.
Go back to Warsaw and to your life with no room for anyone but you.
Muffin, come on.
Leave. Don't call me "muffin." Enough.
Are you sure?
Is it really you?
Yes.
You look even better in person than on TV.
Let me invite you for tea, I insist.
We can help each other out.
I watched your last show. You dressed as a woman and…
Pick up.
Wanna go for a walk?
It's okay.
Come on.
There.
How come you have the keys?
-You never water your neighbor's plants? -No.
SEND TO EXTERNAL DRIVE
COPYING
And?
Really?
Dad, may I?
-Sure. -Yes!
Look who's calling.
He should pick up.
I would think about it.
Karol!
She'll hang up soon. He should pick up.
You're not thinking logically.
The girl lied to him. Ergo, she could lie to him again.
We don't know all the circumstances
because someone was afraid to pick up the phone.
Even Epicurus says that happiness is simply the absence of pain.
Absence of pain, not chasing something--
Following blindly? What about your famous philosophy of hope?
He should avoid pain at all costs.
"Do you want to be like that? A faceless, mindless, heartless being?"
"Do you want to experience death before death?"
Just stop with that Bukowski, or I'll get really mad.
You're acting like children or worse.
I'm sorry.
Well. All right, then.
Listen, none of this really matters.
We know that you like Magda, and you should fight for her.
I agree. But you have to try as hard as I do with Tosia.
Maybe if she was single.
It is what it is, and whatever will be, will be.
Your whole "slow" philosophy is nice and all,
but, in this case, totally counterproductive!
-Easy for you to say! -No, it's not.
Do you know how my relationships end?
I really want to finally meet a guy who will fight for me.
But when I look at you, I realize that such guys don't even exist.
If you don't want to fight for her for yourself, think about Karol!
He really likes her and needs her.
Yeah.
Dad, I'm sure she had her reasons.
You know her.
How do you know that? Irena, if this is one of your tricks--
Quiet. Come with me for a moment.
Karolek, come.
Thirty Floors Up, the best morning show in Warsaw.
A beautiful view, beautiful people, beautiful stories.
Beautiful life, but not always simple.
Over to you, Ola.
Thank you, Dawid.
Today, we have a special story from Kraków.
What's going on in that beautiful city?
Kraków, the city of rings.
Kings.
Rulers. And obwarzanek, artists, and the Wawel Dragon.
Right here, in this university city, the home of the Basement,
each year, the Dachshund Parade is held.
Although "held" seems to be a bit of an overstatement.
The organizers of the parade made it their mission
to test the endurance of the participants.
If the dachshunds organized the parade, they would have done a better job.
…include the tail.
People in Kraków say that the organizers
underwent fitness tests, but skipped the IQ tests.
-Dachshund Parade? -More like "dum-dum parade."
Poor animals. This should be banned.
-It wasn't supposed to look like that. -No? Then how?
We're all ears.
Are you gonna say you're not a journalist or that you didn't record that?
-I recorded it, but-- -I thought you liked us.
I like you very much.
If you like us so much, pack your things and go back to Warsaw.
Let's finish breakfast. Do you want anything for the road?
Krzysztof!
Daddy's not eating. That's okay, more for us.

Hello? Good evening, Professor. It's me. I'm sorry for the late phone call.
Yes. I've made up my mind.
Thank you, good night.
Trombone.
That was for both of us. Now what?
Was it good at least? Come on.
-Hi. -Hi.
Everyone's talking about you.
Hold on a second. You look different.
Something about you has changed.
Yeah. A lot.
Here you go.
Let's hit it, guys.
One, two, three.
Wiktor, come on. What is this music?
This was nice. One more, please.
All right.
No worries. It'll be okay.
Trombone.
So…
Come.
Trombone.
-Why are you hiding? -Uncle, I can't do it.
What do you mean? I'm sure it'll be fine.
It's my turn soon. I'll back out. No one will notice.
No, it's too late to back out.
Just…
Everything will be all right. We just need a bit more time. Okay?
Mm-hmm.
Trombone!
-There you are. Great, sit down. -Hello.
Dear crew, number one on the agenda.
The story about preparations for the Dachshund Parade was fantastic.
Viewership and social media visits almost doubled.
-Dawid. -Thanks.
-Get your things. You no longer work here. -Excuse me?
-It wasn't your footage. We all know it. -But…
-Goodbye. -But--
Item two, Magda!
Great job. You went there on your own, without support, and you pulled it off.
My emotions got the best of me.
You're the best person for this job.
You're back. During the next line-up, we'll announce you're replacing me.
Sorry.
Todd made it. Don't worry, he's fine.
To help him get better, I've sent him to a dog health resort in Southern Tyrol.
Take that call. It's okay.
Magda? Can you hear me?
Wiktor, speak louder.
I can't speak louder. There's a crowd of people here.
It's about Karol. He wants to back out.
What?
I tried to help him with the competition, but I only made things worse.
He says he definitely can't do it, and it's all pointless.
Even Trombone is acting strange. He's not listening to anyone!
Have you tried--
Listen to me. The point is,
they need you here. You!
And there's one more dramatically serious issue.
Magda, are you coming back?
Listen.
Krzysztof is leaving Kraków tonight.
We're all waiting.
Hello? Can you hear me?
There's no need. I quit.
Excuse me?
Good luck.
There he is!
Buongiorno, sweetie.
Where's the fire?
Krzysztof is going to Vienna after the parade. We have to hurry up.
DACHSHUND PARADE
They've set up a podium for our little friends behind me.
It's a sign that we're near the end. We'll soon know the results. The prize--
Before we announce the results, one more short music break.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Before we finish, one more local attraction.
A performance by Karol and Trombone!
Karol and Trombone, please join us!
Come on.
Karol?
Let him do it.
Trombone, come.
Is that enough humiliation? I'm taking him off stage.
Karol is fighting for what he wants. Don't mess it up for him.
Sit.
Karol!
Sit.
Good.
-I promised I'd be here. -I know.
Come on, Trombone.
Speak!
Paw!
Trombone.
Ta-da!
-Good show. Is he yours? -Yes. Meet Trombone.
This is Tuba. Could you teach me a few of your tricks?
Let's set a date at school.
As soon as I'm back. I'll be away for a while.
That's okay. I'll wait.
That was super-duper mega professional!
Magda was right. It wasn't that hard.
You were amazing. Congratulations.
I am very proud of you, and I'm sorry I doubted you.
-Maybe you can introduce me now? -Dad!
I'm Tosia. Hello.
Krzysztof, his dad. And this is Wiktor.
-Hello. Tosia. -Hello, miss.
Not the dad.
So it's a date.
Let's go, Tuba.
"It's a date"?
Well done.
It was wonderful.
Wiktor.
You were right. Thank you.
We have a train to catch. Come on.
Anatol?
-Yes. -Hi.
-I'm Wiktor. -What's up?
Magda told me to take care of you.
That's cool.
It is?
I have a gig in Kazimierz. Do you wanna come? It's sung poetry.
Will you bring the electric guitar with you?
Wait.
I acted like an idiot.
I mean, I acted like I always do.
But since I came here, everything really has changed.
And…
up until now, my life has really been too fast.
And… really empty
without you.
I'm sorry.
Don't leave.
Would you like to come with us? We'll spend this weekend together.
What weekend?
Wiktor said you're going for a year.
What year?
This must have been his plan all along. No, it's just an interview. For now.
Then we'll see.
So?
Will you spend this weekend with me? And… every weekend after that?
I thought you liked to take things slow.
Not everything.
Turn around.
We have to go now.
-Where are your things? -I don't have any.
Okay, let's go.
Can we get in with the dog? Great.
