Piotr est victime d'un choc frontal lors d'un accident de la circulation. S'ensuit une perte générale de son intellect. Après un coma suivi d'un traitement en milieu médicalisé, il va devoir se reconstruire au quotidien, entre les tentatives de remémorisation du passé et les nouveaux acquis qui constituent le processus d'une renaissance quasi complète. Le chemin pour y parvenir est semé d'embûches et de succès, d'espoirs et de désillusions, de joies mais aussi de peines assumées par son amie Marilyn, qui lui voue un amour intact et qui ne connaît ni résignation ni abandon.

She also plays the flugelhorn brilliantly, and is allowed to play with the local brass band after playing Concierto de Aranjuez with them, the band is made up of miners from whom she must conceal her purpose. She renews a childhood romance with Andy Barrow, which soon leads to complications. It is later revealed during a confrontation between Gloria and the management of the colliery that the decision to close the colliery had been made two years previously, and that this was to have gone ahead regardless of the findings of her report; the report simply being a public relations exercise to placate the miners and members of the public sympathetic to their plight.
