I wasn't sure what to expect here, with no synopsis available, which I prefer anyway, I just wasn't expecting a passionate romance of sorts.
Maks, an Italian stallion of a man, working in Poland in high adrenaline sports, starts a relationship with Olga, a widow, 15 years older, who happens to be a judge and coincidentally is the mother of his young adult girl friend, Maja.
Initially Maks plans on manipulating the attractive judge to help with his best friend's court case and wasn't aware that his girlfriend Maja was her daughter, but the connection is possibly more than just physical attraction for lonely Olga or a scam for adventurous Maks. There is a lot of physical attraction going on in fact, lots of sex scenes, with T&A nudity between Maks and Maja and then even more with Olga, mostly on the beach, but these are not From here to Eternity lovers in swimsuits.
Olga and Maja became estranged when the husband / father died, neither really copying with the grieving process. Maja only reconnects with Olga when she finds out her older boyfriend Maks had started seeing Olga and she plans to break them up with the help of Maks' friend before things go too far.
Will vulnerable Olga risk opening her heart to this younger man or have a better relationship with daughter Maja ? Will Maks break both of their hearts when the truth comes out, or by going to Brazil with his friend or will he fall in love with one of them ?
The lead actors and their performance's are better than expected in comparison to other Polish films I've recently seen at the cinema. The odd thing here is Maks (Simone Susinna) doesn't speak Polish so a lot of dialogue is actually in English which made it easier to follow for me. The sex scenes are maybe excessive and might put some people off, they are passionate rather than graphic porn though.
A slightly unbelievable story I think, or at least unlikely?.
