Fourteen-year-old Dawid takes care of his younger brother and tries to meet the expectations of his mother – a woman who wants to break away from a toxic past and start anew, without her imprisoned husband. Although the boy has talent and strength, he finds it increasingly difficult to maintain control in his daily life stretched between school, home and the streets. Things get even more complicated when Konrad, the only adult Dawid truly trusts, enters their lives. However, this is only the beginning of turbulent events that may ultimately break up this family... or save it.
