- Synopsis
- In order to solve his debt problems, butcher Oleg decides to immigrate to Belgium. He has the chance to work in his profession, but his alien status makes things difficult – a middleman is a must, who takes half of his salary. After a conflict at work, Oleg finds himself in a foreign country with no income. He accepts the offer to work for the recently acquainted Andzej and moves to the house of Polish immigrants. Slowly Andzej’s real nature comes out. After providing Oleg with a fake passport, he promises to find a job in Oleg’s profession. Promises are not kept and step by step Andzej brakes Oleg physically and psychologically.
