在这部爱巢风波家庭片中,托玛与玛莉亚是一对人人称羡的夫妻:郎才女貌、生活稳定,腹中还有着即将临盆的宝贝。但玛莉亚却有个小小的困扰未曾对丈夫坦白说出口:原来她的顶头上司——市长大人深深爱上了她,甚至不断透过简讯和伊媚儿频频传情。直到某天他登门拜访,表白成了性冲动,一切全部走样;然后,也一步步摧毁了他们原本幸福的婚姻……透过简单而极具争议性的命题,赤裸揭露婚姻关系的脆弱,以及两性面对艰困难题时的差异反应,更像是传统波兰「道德焦虑电影」的精彩承袭。
Maria and Tomek are in their thirties and have been married for ten years now. They live in an anonymous Polish town. Both find professional fulfillment in their jobs - he's a designer, she works in the town hall. They are working together on the decoration of their apartment and are expecting a baby. It seems that nothing is capable of disturbing their peaceful lives. But one day the mayor, who has long been attracted to Maria, rapes her. She decides not to report this to the police. Nor does she tell her husband. From that day forth, their love is put to the test.
