Synopsis

Seweryn, a 30-year-old musician, is on the verge of fulfilling his dreams—to sign a contract with a small music label. His life takes an unexpected turn when, after a gig, he becomes the victim of sexual abuse by Michael, a powerful businessman. At first, Seweryn doesn’t remember what happened, but his body begins to send signals, and he loses his most precious asset—his voice. With his beloved Caro by his side, Seweryn embarks on a journey to reclaim himself. Together, they face the greatest challenge of their relationship. Though initially lost and devoid of the will to live, Seweryn gradually discovers that the key to healing lies in confronting a long-buried trauma from his childhood, tied to his family roots in Poland. This is a story of hope, the power of love, and resilience. Through facing his past, Seweryn learns to believe in himself and the future, finding light even in the darkest moments and rebuilding his life on stronger foundations.
