Ce documentaire a la particularité « de confronter directement des victimes de prêtres pédophiles, en caméra cachée, avec leurs agresseurs ». Il « met en cause la hiérarchie épiscopale dans la faiblesse — voire l’absence — des sanctions dans les cas de pédophilie », dénonçant l'hypocrisie de l'église polonaise et l'impunité des prêtres agresseurs.

Nineteen-year-old Tomek (Olaf Lubaszenko) is living in an apartment complex in Warsaw with his godmother—staying in her son's room while he's away. Raised in an orphanage, the shy Tomek has few friends and works as a postal clerk. Tomek has been spying on a beautiful older woman, Magda (Grazyna Szapolowska), who lives in an adjacent apartment complex. Using a telescope, he watches her every night performing mundane tasks, working on her artwork, and entertaining men. To get closer to her, he slips fake postal notices in her mailbox for a nonexistent money order at his post office. He also calls her anonymously to hear her voice. Tomek's obsession is focused more on her everyday activities rather than her sex life; when he sees her becoming sexual with men, he trains the telescope away and does not watch.

Genres Drama
Actors Łukasz Simlat, Leszek Lichota

Daniel est un jeune de 20 ans dans un centre éducatif surveillé en semi-liberté qui accueille des délinquants souvent violents. Il est attiré par la prêtrise, mais il n'a pas achevé sa scolarité secondaire et en outre son casier judiciaire lui ferme la porte du séminaire. Envoyé pour un emploi dans une scierie, il se retrouve empêtré dans un mensonge non-prémédité où il prétend en discutant avec une jeune fille rencontrée dans une église être prêtre. Le curé qui l'accueille sans connaître la vérité, devant quitter sa paroisse pour un traitement contre son alcoolisme, lui confie son intérim sans en informer l'évêché. Daniel pris à son propre piège n'ose pas reconnaître son mensonge et assure les responsabilités du prêtre : messes, contacts avec les paroissiens et avec le maire du village, qui se trouve être le propriétaire de la scierie où il devait travailler, apparemment la principale entreprise locale, etc. Un tragique événement avait endeuillé la commune l'année précédente, un accident provoqué par une collision entre deux véhicules qui avait provoqué la mort de six jeunes dont la voiture avait été percutée frontalement par celle d'un autre automobiliste vivant dans le même village, décédé également. Depuis, les familles des victimes s'opposent à l'inhumation du chauffeur impliqué et persécutent sa veuve par des lettres anonymes d'injures et des inscriptions sur la façade de sa maison. Daniel s'attache à trouver une solution pour faire tomber le vindicte dont la veuve est victime. Dans ses homélies, inspirées notamment de celles prononcées par l’aumônier de son centre éducatif, il tient un langage moins stéréotypé que le curé en congé et plaît à la majorité des paroissiens. Le maire est plus sévère à l'égard de ce jeune prêtre qui critique sévèrement la course à l'enrichissement lors l'inauguration de nouveaux bâtiments de la scierie. À l'occasion de cette cérémonie, un de ses anciens camarades du centre éducatif le reconnaît et veut le faire chanter, allant jusqu’à mettre le feu à une annexe du presbytère. Parallèlement, Daniel, sans avouer sa situation réelle, a une relation amoureuse avec la jeune fille rencontrée dans l'église du village à son arrivée.
