Trailer
Forever quick-witted at press conferences, she never has any issues brushing off allegations of corruption. Thus when Małgorzata's son again suffers a drug overdose and she notices that he has more than his own blood on his hands, she proceeds with a sense of order and her customary ruthlessness. Her son is to continue as if nothing ever happened, along the path to a successful career, this professional politician and mother unwilling to tolerate any resistance. She needs her daughter's support however, transforming the latter into an accomplice. Just however when it appears that the episode has been successfully brushed under the carpet, mobile phone footage emerges that threatens to unnerve the iron lady, forcing her to make a difficult decision.
A wonderfully shot production. JG
