Plot Summary: The film centers on a big Polish family. Jadzia is the mother and the ruler of the Pzoniak family (she has five children). Though she's happily married to Bolek, she is also having a long-time affair with Roman. Her young daughter Chala is having an affair with neighbour cop Russell and becomes pregnant by him. Russell is pressed hard to marry Chala.

Comments: This is a vibrant, life-loving, funny film--and if it offended some people, so the better. The family in the film are strange birds and provide entertainment for nosy, judgmental neighbors, so I'm sure they'd understand. And at last, an attractive older woman (Olin) who has an affair! Great cinematography, great cast. This is one of those films you either "get" or you don't.
