Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Marcin Kroll deserts from his military unit that’s headed to the training ground. Lieutenant Arek is sent after him, tasked with bringing Kroll back to the unit before an official investigation begins. The officers fear a scandal: the inquiry could expose the brutal conditions in the unit that drove several soldiers to suicide.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
