History of Sin

It is the turn of 19th and 20th century. An impoverished young noblewoman, Ewa Pobratyńska (Grażyna Długołęcka), falls in love with a lodger of her parents', Łukasz Niepołomski (Jerzy Zelnik). An affair with a married and - as it turns out - faithless man is the beginning of her moral fall. An unwanted pregnancy and infanticide, a relationship with a con man, Pochroń (Roman Wilhelmi) and prostitution make up for the main components in the story of the heroine's sin, a story with no chance for a happy ending.
