Humble Servants
Mariusz Gawryś
2016, 1 h 40 minA young German girl throws herself from a church tower. The investigation is led by the experienced chief constable Warski who values saving lives over procedures.
To his dissatisfaction also Ana Wittesch, a German policewoman of Polish origin, is assigned to the case. Warski is not aware that Ana’s come to Wrocław to conduct yet another, secret, investigation, but he discovers the truth about her quite quickly. Not the whole truth, though – that is known to somebody else – parson Witecki.
Meanwhile in Wrocław appears Dr Kuntz, an envoy from the Vatican.
What is the link between his arrival, the suicide of the German girl and Ana Wittesch’s investigation? Before this riddle can be solved, another girl throws herself from the church tower in Wrocław…
