Dorota, a prosecutor her forties, says she drinks “so she won’t go crazy”. Using her immunity, she covers up the transgressions she commits “under the influence”, with the help of her husband, a well-known politician. Magda, a college student, likes to party hard, but she gets good grades and holds down a good job. For Teresa, a well-respected surgeon, any excuse to have a drink is a good one. She even drinks at work, at the children’s hospital that she’s the head of. Each of these three women is treading on thin ice, and it won’t take much for it to break. Will they win the battle with their personal demons, supported by their families and friends? Kinga Dębska proves once more that she’s a director who never looks down on her characters. She shows their struggles without either moralizing or making excuses for their behaviour.  She strives to be objective, never losing a sense of empathy that many directors lack towards their characters. The compelling performances by Agata Kulesza, Maria Dębska and Dorota Kolak deserve special recognition.
