"Misia." "I've been offered promotion at the shop." "But it's a responsibility, you know." "I'll have less time." "Even less?" "Yes." "But the money's better." "Much better." "What'll you buy with it?" "Well, I'll buy you a computer, for example." "So." "Do you agree?" "I don't know." "OK, so if you don't know, then I'll agree for you." "And you'll enter that big IT competition." "Give me five?" "THE WOMAN'S DAY For she's a jolly good fellow." "And so say all of us." "OK, OK." "Your health, Halina." "You never caught a minnow and now you're a big fish!" "You'll be keeping our nose to the grindstone, right?" " Sure." "You know me!" " That's what they all say." "Our Regional Director was OK once." "And now?" "Hey, our RD's OK." "My friends at my local supermarket, they had this real madman." "He dropped his trousers and wanked all over the fruit 'n veg section." "And then the girls had to clean it up." "Leave her alone." "So?" "To hell with management?" " Sure." "To hell with it!" " To us!" " To us!" " To us!" "Jesus, woman." "Eryk Gąsiorowski, Regional Director." "Would you care to dance?" "Please." "But I don't know how, Anka." "Hips to the right, hips to the left, and shake it all about!" "I'm embarrassed." "BUTTERFLY" " And just what's this?" " The time sheet." "In a table." "As required." "When you were on the checkout, did you get paid overtime?" "Right." "And here?" "Jadwiga Staroń. 5th May 2002." "How many hours does Staroń have in her contract?" "Six." " So why have you entered ten?" " Because she worked fourteen." "Listen Halina." "The company's not a charity." "If they don't get the work done in their contracted hours, that's tough." "If we start paying overtime, it'll bankrupt Butterfly." "And then you'll be out of a job." "And I'll be out of a job." "Right?" "Well, yes." "But there's no way to get through all the work." "Not in six hours." "Not with the handful of staff I've got." "It's not physically possible." "Impossible, impossible." "You have to have a positive outlook on the world." "Everything's doable, it you really want it to be." "Do we understand each other?" "I'm here for the managers' training." "Halina Radwan." " What was the name again, please?" " Radwan." "Halina." "What's the most important word for a shop manager?" "Do you know?" "Anyone?" "The magic word beginning with 'P'?" "Please?" " Promotion?" " Profit?" " Purchase?" " Provision?" "Pay rise?" "Prescribe?" "Productivity." "Altogether now." "Productivity, productivity, productivity..." "And one, two, three, four." "Run, run, my dears." "And one, two, three, stop." "Grab the skipping ropes and go, go..." "You're a team, you're a team." "And go, go..." "Stop." "And what's the letter?" "P, p, p..." "Failed again." "Listen!" "Work together." "You're a team." "There's no success if you don't pull together." "And again." "Places please." "Small circle, big circle..." "And one, two, three, four." "There's nothing to be afraid of." "It's perfectly normal." "Everyone does it." "I'm here because I want my staff to be happy." "I'm afraid we can't give you a loan." "Thieves!" "All we need now is a signature and then the loan's yours." "Was that painful?" " Thank you." " Thank you." "Thanks, mate." "See you at the gym." "Thanks." "Bye!" " You're joking!" " I'm not!" "I saw them myself." "Watch it." "The Kapo's coming." "Kapo?" "Beata..." "Are you turning the girls against me?" "Me?" "Oooh... are you so sensitive?" "Just don't forget who's the manager here, OK?" "I won't forget." "You know the job was mine." "I've been the deputy manager for three years." "And what happens?" "Did you give the RD a blow-job?" "Everyone knows he likes a bit of that." "Halina, we need someone at the check-out." "We can't cope." "Can you come?" " I lost it." " An apology's called for, isn't it?" "Hello." "Yes." "This is the manager." "Halina Radwan." "A delivery this evening?" "All right." "I've got that." "I've already agreed." "Besides, I don't understand." "It's a promotion." "You should be happy." "But I am happy." " This is so nice, isn't it?" " Hang on." "Excuse me, please." " Shall I open it up?" " No, no, thank you." "Yes, please." "Yes." "One doesn't turn a man down." "You need a man, you know." "He'd buy you two sofas like this if you wanted." "Right?" "But Mum's a manager, now, Gran." "She can buy herself a sofa like this." "She's got loads of money." "My, my." "A woman boss... well." "That's nothing but problems." "So, Halina." "Now you're going to have loads of money, ...you should finally buy yourself a decent dress, right?" "Now come, on, Mum." " Just when did you last see me in a dress?" " Precisely." "Hello." "What do you mean, waiting with a delivery?" "No, I didn't take any such call." "No, no, I'm not mucking you about." "No." "It was scheduled for the day after tomorrow." "Yes." " I don't know." " Misia, stop it!" "Fuck, it's dawn." "I can't believe we unloaded the lot ourselves." "Thanks, for answering the phone at all, Anka." "Don't talk crap, Halina." "OK." "Hang on..." "OK." "Fuck..." " What?" " Nothing." "I always get this pain when I do a lot of lifting." " Take two at once, OK?" " No, no thanks." "It'll pass in a minute." " Have you been to the doctor about it?" " Like when?" "Why haven't we got a forklift?" "Other shops have." "OK, Anka, go home." " Come in for the second shift." " And you?" "I'll have a nap here." "Off you go, Anka." "Be careful." "The floor's only just been sanded." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Goodbye." "There's unpacking to be done, Misia." "Misia." " Give me a hand, here, please." " Why?" "Because I said so." "I've got to study." "Because I'm about to lose my temper, Misia." "And you?" "Why aren't you singing?" "Ms Radwan, you have to sing along with everyone else." "That's what it's all about." "Do you see?" "Courage." "And again." "Just a moment." "My dears." "You're not hopeless." "You are the best." "And this is going to be a brilliant music video." "Right?" "Right!" " Like on MTV, right?" "!" " One, two, one, two, three and..." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "'Cos there's nothing Motylek's not got." "Choose Butterfly, it'll always pay," "With the best prices for a rainy day." "Believe what I say." "And do you sometimes think about what your life'll be like in ten years' time?" "What do you mean?" "Do you have any dreams?" " I have needs." " No, no." "Dreams, Halina, dreams." "We have to have dreams." "Dreams have to be nurtured, they have to be tended like a garden, ...like plants." "Watered." "I'm telling you, everything's possible." "Really." "Please believe me." "Everything's possible." "We just have to really want it." "And do you have the strength to always be wanting everything?" " Name, please?" " Halina Radwan." "Radwan." "Okay." "Go on up, please." "The second floor." " Thank you." " My pleasure." "Now this is what's called proper record-keeping." "Let's see..." "Which is better?" "The old or the new?" "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, Catch a timesheet by his toe," "If it screams then let it go, Eeny, meeny, miny... moe." "Good morning." "Excuse me." "How to be Lucky in Business." "Why aren't you at the regional office?" "Why am I always seeing you here?" "HQ, HQ... and what about your own patch?" "Get to work." "May I go now?" "Of course." " That's all." "Thank you." " Thank you." "Ms Radwan." "We have such attractive uniforms." "Yet you continually wander around dressed like a workman." "It's not acceptable." "You represent the company." "You know, Mr. Gąsiorowski, moustaches have also gone out of fashion." "Ms Radwan, I'm sorry." "My car's broken down." "Could you give me a lift part of the way?" "Sure." "If you can squeeze in, that is." "We could really do with a forklift." "The rule is that there are no forklifts in our shops." "It goes with the job." "Only the strongest survive." "Just like nature." "Quite a car you've got, Halina." "It'll even do 150 km/h." "It's souped-up." "Do you often go to our church?" "My mother-in-law lives nearby." "My wife has multiple sclerosis." "She's seriously ill." "My Mum's sick, too." "Only she pretends there's nothing wrong." "She's had chemotherapy." "Could you pass me the spanner?" "It's under the seat there." "You think the state pays for it?" "Shit, not help." "Consultations, hospitals, doctors and she's suffering." "If my shops don't get results, then my bonus is screwed." "Now do you understand why things are like they are?" "Right, now start her up." "Wow, Jesus!" "Unbelievable!" "You're late again." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry isn't good enough." "We've only got two checkouts open." "I said I'm sorry." "So?" "Is that what I'm supposed to tell the customers?" "That you don't give a toss about them?" "I don't know..." "because you like a nice lie-in?" "Fuck." "Shut up, woman." "Shut up." "Maryla, what's wrong?" "It's Krzysiek." "They've found a lump." "Don't panic." "The same thing happened to my mum." "She got through the chemo and everything's fine." "She even goes dancing." " OK." "No more than thirty minutes." " What thirty minutes?" "You can't be more than thirty minutes late." "Now out to the shop and give it all you've got." "It'll be fine." "Well, you know, at least I've finally moved out of that hovel." "I just can't believe it." "For the first time in my life, I've got my own room." "It's unbelievable, you know." "Halina, could you not smoke in front of me?" "What?" "No!" "Jadzia, no!" "Has it finally happened?" "Yes!" "Hey, not so fast!" "Have you flipped?" "How come you're bringing my wife home this late?" "It's a good thing I haven't got one." "Bye, Staszek." " Bye, Staszek." " Bye." "Hello, Mum." "Hang on." "Zdzisiek, come in." "Good evening." "Good evening." "So." "This is Zdzisiek" "Halina." "Take your coats off." "Oh, my goodness, Mum." "Thank you." "Mum... is this by any chance your dresses." "Well..." "but it's a good as new." "And you've got to start a new life now." "As a woman and a manager." " Well, what do you think?" " Lovely." "Misia." "Come on." "Supper." "Misia!" "What're you up to in there all the time?" "Have fear of God." "Gran, there isn't a God." "Is that right?" "There isn't a God, right?" "There isn't a God?" "Misia, child, God is everywhere." "Even in the soup." "Sit down, Zdzisiek." "There isn't a God!" " You've brought her up well." " Leave her be, Mum." "She's worn out." "She's preparing for the national IT competition." "OK." "Let's eat." "Bon appetit!" "Bon appetit!" "So, where did you meet?" " Chemotherapy..." " At a dance..." "Because if a man's in hospital having chemotherapy, then he'd be glad to have a chat with someone as attractive..." "Gran, are you having chemo again?" "No." "That was a while ago." "Zdzisiu!" "Only a fool wouldn't have a sip with their soup!" "Excuse me." "Yes?" "The company dinner?" "No, no, I haven't forgotten." "Great." "Everything's there." "And here's our charming inspector from the National Labour Expector..." "Inspectorate." "Please." "Here it is, all in line with the list, just as you requested." " How about one on the company?" " No, no." "I'm driving." "Driving?" "You float!" "Butterfly's butterfly!" "A butterfly I might have been." "Before I put on weight." "I must fly." "Sit down." "You know the magic 'P' word?" "You see, my bosses, they love figures ...and your shop's results are dreadful." "Look..." "Krzaczkowska..." "late?" "Takes time off?" "Staroń's pregnant." "Always off for check-ups." "You're going to have to let someone go." "But why?" "What for?" "They're great girls." "Really." "And besides that, I haven't got enough people as it is." " We're barely coping." " You misunderstand me." "I'm not asking." "But Maryla's been working there the longest." "And now, when she's got problems, I'm supposed to suddenly fire her?" "I've got problems too." "And does that affect my work?" "So, get rid of the other one." "What does she need job for if she's going to have a kid?" "I'm supposed to fire her because she's pregnant?" "I won't do that." "Halina, you're forgetting." "You're not one of them any more." "Either the old one or the pregnant one." "Which one do you choose?" "Write..." "I, Halina Radwan, of my own free will, hereby resign as manager of Shop Number..." "There, you see... bravo." "Halina, "The future starts today, not tomorrow"." "Pope John Paul Il." "I've grown very fond of you." "Misia, it's one in the morning!" "Turn that off." "Go to bed, Misia." "Good morning." " You're at home?" " Well, I'm on my way to work." " I'm looking for Misia." " Misia?" "Misia's gone to school." "Your daughter hasn't been at school for three weeks now." "I thought at any rate that was OK." "Do you know where she could be?" "No way." "I'll have her guts for garters." "What are you doing?" "What do you want to go making an idiot of her for?" "She won't want to talk to you for a year after that." "You need to talk to her calmly at home." "Later." "I'll give her smoking." "Halina, here, have some." "Jadzia, I've got a stomach ache." "No thanks." "Really." "Oh, come on." "It's my birthday." "I'm not saying which, because you know just as well." "Yes, I know." "Happy birthday." " Everything OK?" " Yes, OK." "Maryla, come to office with me." "Maybe she's got a raise waiting for me?" "Sure!" "And for Angela." "Maryla, it's not that bad." "You'll get money in lieu of the holiday you're due." "Sure." "Great." "I'll head for the Seychelles with my hubby, right?" "Listen, I had no way out." "Really, I tried to save you." "Save me." "Halina, all you know is how to save your own arse." "And you can't fire me without a reason." "I'm going back to work," "Good morning." "Monika, come here for a moment." "Take this to Maryla at the checkout." "Here's some money." "She won't fall for it." "She's been here too long." " Anyway, I won't do it." " Monika, don't argue with me." "Listen." "I need one day off this week." "I still don't have a dress." "I mean, am I supposed to go to the wedding in this overall?" "You getting all prettied up for the wedding?" "Eight sixty." "I'm sorry, Maryla." "That's quite an oversight." "I'm afraid I'm going to have fire you." "Unless you'd like to hand in your notice?" "I'll forgive you, because you're a fool." "Bravo, bravo, Halina." "Will you get a raise for this?" "How's school?" "Cool." "Have you had any tests?" "Yeah." " What in?" " Don't be boring." "I'm studying." "What are you doing?" "The project for the competition?" "Come on, show me..." "I'm interested." "I can't." "It's hung." "Where's it hung?" "Here." "I can't open this file." "Which file?" " This one." "I can't open it." " This one?" "This one's hung?" "What are you doing?" "You've lost the plot." "You'll break everything." "What do you take me for?" "An idiot?" "Tomorrow you're going straight to school." "Just you try failing this year and you won't see this computer again..." " ...till you've grown tits." " What do you care if I pass or not?" "You don't give a toss about any of it." "Misia!" "You even forgot my birthday." "Turn that down!" "Turn it down, Misia!" "I can't here a thing." "You gonna rip my stereo out, too?" "Good morning." "This is the first time I've seen you out of trousers." "How did it go?" "It was hard." "Well done." "You did a good job." "Don't regret a thing." "It's the start of enormous knowledge." "People don't understand us, Halina." "Fancy a try?" "No, I have to get back to the shop." " No." "I'm no good at sailing" " Come on." "No Mr..." "Eryk." "Another time, maybe." "Halina..." "OK, so we're on for a staff trip, right?" " I don't know." " You don't forget that." "I think you should just..." "You know." "Jadzia, I mean, I'm on my way back to being a virgin." "Maybe it can reconstitute itself." " Well, how many years has it been?" " Four... since Grzesiek." "That prat." "You're not a virgin yet." "I could go for that one." "Wouldn't kick him out of bed." "Fuck, no bullshit." "Really." "Angela, where the fuck's your taste?" " I mean, he's a waste of space." " Crap, you know?" "Yeah, maybe I do." "But, look..." "that's one classy bloke." "Look, his shoes are great." "Yeah, right, Turkish delight." "Turkish delight..." "Yeah, right, Turkish delight..." "hick from the sticks." "Hick yourself." "Angela, shouldn't you be getting back to work?" "Hey, sorry, but right now I'm on my statutory twelve minutes' break." "I told you, blokes are worth fuck all." "Have a look now." "1 zloty 45..." "I'm not pissing into that." "Angela, you know the magic 'P' word?" "You can hang on for six hours?" "No one's going to relieve you and I'm off to HQ." "Yeah, to HQ?" "All tarted up." "Listen, there was someone who wet herself at the checkout once." "She doesn't work here any more." "You know the magic 'P' word?" "Prick sucker." "So, are they biting?" "Because the wind's getting up." "Just a moment more." "This is a nice place." "Over there, once, my dad and I caught a tench like this." "Like this?" "Yes, really." "WHATEVER HAPPENS, DON'T LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL." "And that's it." "Hang on, Beata." "You all need to sign that you've taken part in the training." "OK, I'm back to the shop." "Butterfly gives you the lot....?" "Hey, but I'm signing to say that the training took forty-eight hours." "So?" "It lasted twenty minutes." "Angela, are you joking?" "Who'd have been working in the shop then?" "Just be fucking happy that we've got the forklift at all." " Fucking ace." " I'm thrilled." "OK, so on you get, with some pallets and out into the shop." " Why me?" " Because I've assigned you to it." "But I haven't even got a driving license." "Angela, get on and don't argue." "Get on the forklift, damn it." "Hey, fuck." "I mean, I can't even ride a bike." "What are you?" "A baby?" "Going to start snivelling on me next?" " I'll drive it." "I can drive it." " No, Angela's going to drive it." "What's a girl like you doing alone?" "But I've got a daughter." "You know what I'm asking." "And how do you know I'm alone?" "Well, I kind of don't see your husband here." "Kind of don't see your wife here, either." "It's a pity we're both taken." "I need another girl for the shop." "Maybe Maryla could come back?" "No." "Too old." "I'll send you someone younger." "Where's my tie?" "Come here." "My husband went to the States seven years ago." "He sent some money." "Twice." "And that was the last we heard from him." "Our daughter missed him." "Cried." "Please excuse me." "Gawlik and Gawlik Solicitors." "Of course, I'll see to it in a minute." "Yes." "Bye." "My apologies." "So they should give me a divorce, should they?" "Well, no, not at once, but "he that's born to be hanged shall never drift..."" "Drown." "One thousand, five hundred initially, I think." "I'm sorry, but do you have a hanky?" " One thousand, five hundred zloty?" " But I can let you pay installments." "Well, I'll think it over." "OK... and why do you want to work in our shop?" "I dunno." "My mum used to work in the co-operative." "On the checkout." "Will that do?" "Oh well." "Sign here." " You'll be starting at once." " Great." " Thanks." " Halina." "Come." "Quickly." "A man's passed out in the shop." "Excuse me, but are you just going to leave him like that." "It's a matter for the funeral home." "And what are we supposed to do?" "Wait." "Wait." "Ladies and gentleman, please move on." "Leszek." "Leszek." "Take the customers outside, please." "OK, ladies and gentlemen." "You heard." "Let's leave the shop, please." "Let's leave." "Anka, go and lock the shop." "No need to crowd." "Eryk." "OK, OK." "Take it easy, sweetheart." "No jitters." "OK." "You'll be losing money." "Open the shop." "But how am I supposed to open." "The man's lying in there." "Are you a child?" "Cover him with something." "I can't do anything at the moment." "I'll be over later." "Open the shop." "All right, girls." "We're going back to work." "Jadzia, go and open up." "Please." "Halina, a man's dead." "It's not a request, Jadzia." "Open the shop." "Halina, a man's dead." "Open the shop." "Fuck off." "Give me the keys." "Wiola, he needs to be covered with something." "Sorry." "I'm not touching a dead body." "Have they taken him away, Leszek?" "Yup." "They took him, eventually." "Around 3.00 this afternoon." "Sweetheart." "Hey, OK." "You got through it somehow, eh?" "That's how it goes now." "People are born." "They die." "Under a potato sack?" "Stop it." "I understand." "Go, get some rest, some sleep." "I will close the shop." "Go." "But in the circumstances, why didn't you close the shop?" "I explained." "The shop was shut." "OK, so it was shut." "Only why did you have to..." "No filming, please." "Jadzia, come along." "Maybe you'd like to say something." "By all accounts, you're infringing human rights in your shops." "Why are Butterfly's staff silent?" "Are you going to harass a pregnant woman?" "Clear out of here." "Now!" "Don't you women understand that you're living in a free country." "And that's the end of the discussion!" "Jadzia, have you gone mad?" "You want to lose your job?" " Who are you loyal to?" "Jadzia?" " Loyal?" "I've known you twenty years." "I sat next to you for half of primary school." "Get a grip, girl." "Oh, fuck." "Halina!" "Is there a problem?" "Well, this till won't read it." "I think the code, here, must be damaged." "Could you swap it for another?" "I'm supposed to run around changing it?" "That's your job." "I'm very sorry." "I'm sorry, but I can't leave the till." "How come only one checkout's open?" "Is this how you treat people?" "Why are you arsing about?" "Why don't you answer the phone?" "Are you getting business and pleasure mixed up?" "Yes, Mr. Gąsiorowski?" "The stocktaking deadline's been changed." " The inventory's to be done today, Ms Radwan." " But I don't have the staff." "Jadzia's got a check-up." "Monika's got a wedding." "And it appears your Wiola is sick." "Is this where I weep?" " We won't make it." " This is not a fucking negotiation." "Listen." "You need to think about whether you want to work here at all." "OK?" "Your customers are waiting." "Yes..." "OK." "Misia, see, I haven't forgotten the number." "Come to the shop." "We'll see if you're any good at maths." " Halina, I fee terrible." " Have a break." "I need to go home." "But Jadzia, we won't make it without you." "How's it going, Misia?" "With the numbers?" " Was the body lying here, Mum?" " What body?" "Have a look!" "You know what this means?" "Misia, did you come here to mess around or to help?" "Turn that the right way up again this minute." "Just... show me that." "The calculations are all wrong." "What have you put here?" "Fuck it, I'm trying." "Jadzia?" "Does she have to stay in here?" "It's no place for her to be." "Excuse me." "What's your connection with the patient?" "Staszek..." "Everything's OK now." "If you were a bloke... fuck off." "Mum?" "Mum?" "Ah, you're here." "Guess who's been made the new manager?" "I'm afraid you don't have an appointment." "Just a minute!" "How many time have I said." "I you don't have an appointment, you don't go up." " What are you doing here?" " I'm not signing it." " Why should I have to sign it?" " What do you mean, why?" " I'm not signing it!" " You don't know why?" "Staroń had a miscarriage in your shop, right?" " Because of you." " But you gave the order." "I instructed you to get rid of her a month ago." "You broke the law, Halina." "You could wind up behind bars." "Don't you get it?" "I'm saving your arse." "What am I supposed to do?" "Don't cry, Halina." "Easy, sweetheart." "Did you really think I'd fire you because the stocktaking wasn't done?" "Everything's gone beyond our control." "Halina, sign." "Smart girl." "I know things are tough for you." "But you'll cope, right?" "Good." "And please." "Don't ever come here again." "Unemployment has risen by a further 3%." "Mum?" " What's that?" " Shopping." "Gran gave me some money." " Don't buy stuff from Butterfly." "Understand?" " So where am I supposed to go?" "It's cheapest there." "Do you think you might finally start looking for a new job?" "Don't buy stuff in Motylek!" "Understand?" "Halinka, I'm reallyvery happy that finally someone sound like you has turned up." "Here you are." "This is my business card with phone numbers." " Could I have yours?" " I don't have one." "Never mind." "We'll print you one with the shop's logo." "Right." "I'll go and prepare the contract." "Feel free to have a look around the shop." "What's wrong?" "Well, nobody's going to take you on with a disciplinary record." "Unless you want to work illegally?" " But it wasn't my fault." " That's what they all say." "But it's not fair." "Fair or unfair, that's for the courts to decide, not me." "I'm very sorry, but I'm afraid I can't take you on." "Jadzia?" " Jadzia." "Hi." " Tell me." "Can you sleep?" "Because I can't." " Jadzia, honestly..." " I went to a lawyer." "I wanted him to bring a case against the company." "And you know?" "That night, when I lost my baby, it seems I wasn't in the shop." "And your signature's under it." "I can go to court." "I can testify." " Spare yourself the bother." " Come on." " Do you need any money?" " No thanks." "I'm coping." "So?" "I have to answer it." "Hang on." "Just like I said." "I'll have it all sorted in an hour." "Yes..." "OK..." "Halina." "What's the fuck is this?" "I just brought it along, seeing as I was coming anyway." "A pure formality." "Confidentiality clause." "And you came here just to get me to sign this?" "Halina, it's not like you think." "So what is it?" "OK." "Leave." " Yes." "Just take this and go." " Halina?" " Halina what?" " Sweetheart..." "Take this, all of it..." "take your... there you are..." "fucking take it." " Halina, calm down." " Now!" "Fuck off." "I'm back." "My car doors won't shut." "It was my Dad's fishing rod." "I think I'd die if someone stole it." "I see." "I don't know if you're aware that a case like this can drag on for years." "They have top-notch lawyers and a bottomless purse and I don't even have a secretary." "But they fired me without cause." "I'm in the right." "They owe me those 3200 hours of overtime." "I've got a loan to pay off and I'm out of work." "Because of them." " So what am I supposed to do?" " Well, I'd like to help you, honestly." "But what counts in court are facts." "Witnesses." "Every truth has to be proven." "Did you falsify any documents?" "Did you force the staff to work under conditions against the employment law?" "But I was forced to." "Now, if the staff were to agree to take part in the case..." "No..." "that's impossible." "Are those fish you've got in that bag?" "Oh, yes." "I'm sorry." "It's dripping." "I caught them today." "The first time in ten years." "Congratulations." "Ms Radwan!" "Ms Radwan!" "You left your employment certificate." "Oh, but It's only a copy." "You needn't have troubled yourself." "You know your case has intrigued me." "I'll take it on." " But I can't afford your fees." " Don't you worry about me." "I've got my pension." "I don't want to go running around some court." "I've got a boyfriend." "But Anka, you need rehabilitation." "And the money for it." "We've got to be tough, right?" "Not me." "Not any more." "I don't have to be tough." "Will you all meet me?" "It's in your interest." "It's two zloty short." "What're you at, you lout?" "Beating up a woman?" "Maryla?" "Maryla?" "What's up?" "Maryla." "The lady boss dropped by." "Come on, come on." "Sit here." "Hang on." "Here." "Drink this." "Go on." "Drink it." " And where's your husband?" " They took him to hospital." " And how's he feeling?" " Oh, you know, just wonderful." "For two weeks now..." "No, sorry, three, he's been lying in the cemetery." "Excuse me." "I didn't know he'd..." "Maryla, I had to do it." "He threatened me." "Said they'd get rid of me." "Please understand." "Poor Halina, poor Halina." "Maryla, listen." "I want to help you." "Yes?" "So lend me a hundred." "Maryla, listen." "There's going to be a court case." "Because you worked there the longest." "Maryla, listen." " Want some, Halina?" " No, listen." "Please." "Will you come and testify?" "Maryla, if you come, then the others will come." "You know what, Halina?" "I might drink." "But I wouldn't give a scumbag like you the time of day." "Get lost." "Mum!" "Mum!" "Jesus, what happened?" "I don't know..." "something flew through the window." "Are you all right?" "Wow." "Blood." "I'm calling the police." "Stay away from the company, or it'll be the worse for you." "Now what?" "Could you try and look a bit frightened?" " The charm's more... for the radio." " Dorota, what are you saying." "We 're not got make a star out of this one." "I'm sorry to have to say it, but Halina Radwan couldn't cope with the position of manager." "Deliveries were late, the paperwork was in a mess." "She dealt with her personal affairs during working hours." "One day it was the bank or sometimes she even disappeared for the whole day... and then the staff had to do overtime because the shop was being run badly." "And Ms Radwan falsified the records so that none of it would come to light." "And can you corroborate this in any way?" "Of course." "Sure." "I've got the work schedule here that my boss gave me." "There's only two free days in a month." "That'll confirm it..." "her signature." "Thank you." "I have no more questions." "Was the witness specially schooled for this hearing?" "I don't understand." "What was your reason for visiting 'The Sienkiewicz and Baczyński solicitors' offices last week?" "On Wednesday, to be precise." "I was there on private business." "An interesting coincidence." "That same practice, Sienkiewicz and Baczyński, is handling this case." " How much does the witness earn?" " I beg your pardon?" "And what's that got to do with anything?" "Your Honour, I request that the question to be struck." "Answer the question, please." "As the manager of the shop, I've been earning 2000 zloty plus my bonus." " And that's sufficient to live on?" " Well, you know, with two children?" "And yet you availed yourself of the services of the most expensive legal practice in the country." "Well, let's do the maths." "Travel to Poznań. 150 zloty." "Accommodation in a decent hotel. 240 zloty." "Legal consultation. 400 zloty an hour." "As far as I'm aware, you were there for several hours." "Given that you were sorting out private matters, by what miracle were you able to afford those kind of costs?" "Thank you." "I have no more questions." "Do you want some tea?" "Halina?" "Why did you lie to me, eh?" "You know the doctor's forbidden you to get worked up." "You're exactly like your father." "He never did know how to apologise." "Well try." "It doesn't hurt." "Or maybe there's something else I don't know about, eh?" "I'm in debt." "The bank's going to want to repossess the flat." "Darling, please, give up this court case." "You can't cope." "No, I can't do that now." " What's this?" " What?" "Savings." "No, come on, Mum." "Take it back." " No, really." "I don't need it." " All right, all right." "And just in case, I'm insured." "Remember, so that they don't fleece you." "Mum." "What's got into you now?" "Could you spare me a moment, Ms Radwan?" "Is it war you're after?" " And just who are you?" " A friend." "How's Misia?" "Fine?" "What are you up to, you bastard?" "Are you threatening me?" "Oh, please." "We want to help you." "You know how it goes." "Television tells lies." "They start digging, find something a bit dodgy." "It's better not to get involved." "Do you want the whole of Poland to find out about the miscarriage in your branch?" "They threw you out of your last job, too." "Nobody's going to believe you." "Ms Radwan, we 're ready to start." "Stand here, please." "Do you know what the magic word beginning with 'P' is?" "When I was a kid, my mother always said that it's 'Please'." "But here, at Butterfly, they drummed it into my head that it's 'Productivity'." "And that's really the be-all and end-all." "And I do have to say that... as the manager... for a long time..." "I wronged my friends very badly... and perhaps this is a good place to apologise to all of them... for everything that happened and for the fact that I was so terribly frightened." "I'm sorry, Anka, Angela, Monica, Ewa, Beata." "And most of all, I'm sorry, Maryla and Jadzia." "I'm really so sorry, girls." "Listen, is Misia there?" "No?" "OK." "Yes, yes." "Bye." "Mum, is Misia there?" "No, no." "Everything's fine." "Only..." " Hi, guys." " Evening." "I'm looking for my daughter, Misia." "She often hangs out here." "Which one's she?" "Quite small." "Wears black." "Quite a gamer." "It's that one." "Why're you laughing?" " What?" " She's under the table." "Pissed out of her brains." " What are you saying?" " Stating the facts." "Just you listen." "Where is she?" "Talk." " Can't you take a joke?" " No, I can't." "OK, chill." "There's party in the block over there." "If you carry on sniggering like that, you'll be bringing up your first solids." "Give that here." "I'm explaining to you." "HP Check it out, check it out." "Cool." "Good morning." "Come on Misia, we're going home." "Come on." "I'll give you the computer back." "But you will see that..." "Mum?" "What are you doing here?" "Come on, Misia." "Let's go." "What are you smoking?" "A cigarette." "Come on." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "'Cos there's nothing." "Motylek's not got." " Can we go now?" " With the best prices for a rainy day." "Believe what I say." "The company officially employed the staff on a part-time contract, but everyone worked full-time, plus overtime." "The managers had to falsify the records." "So why did you agree to that?" "I was threatened with losing my job." "Please call the next witness." "Ms Jadwiga Staroń." "What kind of a boss was Halina Radwan?" "What civilized country?" "This is the middle of Europe, 21st century." "But here?" "It's like Middle Ages or something." "Or, I don't know, like the labour camps." "That's what I see." "The girls work fourteen-hour days." "We often don't get so much as a single day off in a whole month." "No fringe benefits." "We unload the trucks ourselves." "We stack the shelves ourselves." "We do the cleaning ourselves." "There's no warehouse staff." "So what labour law?" "What human rights?" "Does anyone talk about how we sit at the cash-outs wearing disposable nappies because we're not given the time to go to the loo?" "No, nobody talks about that." "No wonder we're ashamed of it." "I had to tamper with the time sheets." "Had to." "I changed the expiry dates on some of the goods, because I was told to." "And I was afraid of losing my job." "Everybody does it." "Nobody talks about it." "People buy the goods and they haven't got a clue." "Because we sort it out." "Because we are afraid." "Because we want to hang on to our jobs." "Good morning." "We arranged an interview." "I'm sorry." "It's over and done with." "I'm sorry, but what's over and done with?" "We've come all the way from Warsaw, we were due to talk." " Talk about the hearing." " There isn't going to be a hearing." "What do you mean, no hearing?" "You've withdrawn?" "What's going on?" "Why are you frightened?" "Hello, Mum." "You know what?" "This'll make you happy." "I've withdrawn the case." "You were right, you know?" "I went there, took the papers and..." "You know, my mother never ever hugged me?" "And do you hug Misia?" "Of course." "Misia." "Misia, what are you doing there?" "I'm giving Gran a last cigarette." " Good morning." " Good morning." "I've been reading all about it in the local paper." "I don't go to Butterfly any more, you know." " And don't you worry about that bailiff." " Bailiff?" "We've had them round more than once and I've always said, "Over my dead body, my dead body"." "I'm sorry, but I can't help you." "The bank runs a business in order to make a profit and you're now several months behind with your loan repayments." "Yes, but be human." "I'll have money any time now." "I'll tell you something off the record..." "You know what's the most important thing in life..." "Loyalty." "To friends, family and company." "The world's rather like a web." "If you fall out of it once, then that's the end of you." "What are you doing here?" "Hello there." "Don't show me up." "Misia, listen." "We have to talk." "A letter came from the bailiff." "They're going to take everything." "We have to get organised, work out what..." "We'll certainly have to hide the computer." "Then..." "I don't know." "Misia." "Come on." "There's no time." " Here you are." " What?" "What's this?" "For the flat." "So they don't throw us out." "Jesus, Misia." "Where did you get this?" "Chill." "Misia, what have you got yourself into?" " And it's legal?" " Of course it is." " I mean, you bought it for me yourself." " But I'm talking about this selling." "How can you sell something that's not there?" "What do you mean, not there?" "Come on, you can see that this is Volnuk Dravida." "Volnuk Dravida!" "Shadow She-Warrior." "I got to the 127th level." " And?" " I earned 2000 points and 10 000 ducats." "Not bad, huh?" "So?" "You mean you got all that money for the warrior." "She-Warrior." " And you want to give it all to me?" " Yeah, well, we've got to live on something." "Come here." "I won't read it." "Me neither." "I leave everything that I have to my daughter and granddaughter." "The house and furniture, the plot of land and the garage." "Forgive me for its being so little." "P. S." "I'd like to tell my daughter, Halina, that I'm proud of her." "I never fought for anything." "What do you want?" "What?" "Did they send you?" "Excuse me, Ms Radwan..." "I didn't mean to..." "my name's Krystyna Tondera." "I used to work in that Butterfly near the station." "My colleague there crushed my finger with a palette." "They fired me and her." "I've got nothing to live on." "I know the hearing in court's coming up." "I hoped that you might be able to help me somehow." "I'm not going to court." "I thought it over." "What do you mean?" "It means you'll need to find someone else to help you." "Maryla, it's pointless." "We won't swing it, not just the two of us." "We were both sacked." "We need the girls to testify." "OK." "I'll talk to them." "I've already done that." "All right, I'll sign the settlement." "It might just about pay the electricity bill." "You have changed." "Let's go." " What's going on?" " You're not going any further." "You're not going any further..." "Over our dead bodies." "Please don't obstruct us in the execution of our duties." "Excuse me, but Ms Radwan's paid off all her debts." "Come on!" "This is an unlawful eviction." "We're not letting Halina go." "No way, José." "That's not my concern." "I've got an order here dated two months ago." "The bank and the mayor have ordered that Ms Halina Radwan be removed from this property." " Get out of the way, please." " The bank's lying." "We've paid everything." "We're not letting Halina go." " Democracy, democracy..." " Why do you need all this?" "Out of the way." "Democracy is your Democracy." "Why do you want to evict Ms Radwan?" "No filming, please." "I'm here in the execution of my duties." " And I'm a journalist." " And that's of no interest to me." "You're hindering me." "ID, please." " On what grounds?" " I am an official in the service of the state." "And please don't hinder me." "Yes, precisely and, as I understand it, you're carrying out a public function." "Well, unless you're here privately." "I'll be back." "Leave him." "Stop." " That's it." "That's it for now." " You see, she lost her nerve." "She's gone." "Bravo." "Bailiffs to the cellars!" "Bailiffs to the cellars!" " Good morning." " Good morning, come in." "I'm pleased you've come to your senses." "Five thousand's a very good offer." "Sign here, woman." "There's nothing to look at him for, it's a genuinely good offer." "Oh, yes?" "Well, you can stick your offer up your arse." " Hello." " Sorry." "You'll never beat them." "I know what I'm saying." "They're offering five thousand, that's a heap of money." "Halina." "Halina." "Don't do this." "You'll regret it." "Halina, listen." "They'll fire me." "They'll destroy me." "Halina, I'm begging you, sign it, sign." "She's in hospital... please..." "I can't go on..." "Halina, sign." " What's wrong?" " Nothing." "I just feel like screaming, that's all." "Now you!" "But what am I supposed to do?" "Shout, yell, toss your head, otherwise it doesn't count." "Go for it!" "Mum!" "Louder!" "Down with Butterfly!" "Down with Butterfly!" "Your staff pay the highest price for your low prices." "Your staff and the businesses you cheat." "Butterfly moves 40 million a month out of Poland." "Are you scared?" "No." "Not at all." "They won't come." " They'll have done a deal with them." " Take it easy." "They'll turn up." "They're bound to have gone to them with money." "We haven't got a chance." "Decision of the court in the name of the Republic of Poland." "Having examined the case brought by Halina Radwan against Motylek Motylek Co." "Ltd." "for outstanding remuneration for overtime work, the District Court, Department of Work and Social Security allows claim in full and awards 25 thousand zloty to the plaintiff." "The court had no doubt that the defendant deliberately made use of the plaintiff's difficult circumstances which led her to accept" "Ilegal work conditions, namely overtime." "In a state under the rule of law conducting business activity based on forced labour is inadmissible." "And one, two, one, two, one and..." "The hottest prices you'll find, bargains with you in mind." "More money stays with you." "And you smile does too." "A team that's tight as tight and with you all day or night." "That's what makes us strong," "The whole year long." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Cos there's nothing Motylek's not got." "Choose Butterfly, it'll always pay," "With the best prices for a rainy day." "Believe what I say." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Butterfly gives you the lot." "Cos there's nothing Motylek's not got." "Choose Butterfly, it'll always pay," "With the best prices for a rainy day." "Believe what I say."
