Based on actual events in 1982, the film recreates a hostage-taking in Switzerland. Four men storm the Polish embassy: a criminal, a crazed killer, a student and an idealist. When the embassy is stormed by the police, the four captors react differently.
Documentary record of the first shift in Wujek coal mine in Silesia in 1962. We observe the course of events from the perspective of the mine's dispatcher at a modern desktop. We see one man, but the whole first shift crew is working.
