A young archeology student comes to Królowy Most to study the cellars under the church. She finds there a collection of historic documents which may have an enormous impact on the future and prosperity of the village.

Mareczek takes Mamusia from a little allotment house in the outskirts where she has been spending the nights recently. It’s too cold for her to stay there. They set out to the city together with Koleś, a stray dog. They had both lost their flat due to the brutal policy of the city authorities and now they keep going from one shelter to the next. Although the dog is a burden in these circumstances, Mamusia doesn’t want to part with it. The woman makes herself comfortable in a squat where she and Mareczek witness the brutal attempt at burning down the building together with its inhabitants made by fascist militia who had left the Independence March on 11th November a moment earlier. The filmmakers used documentary material of true street incidents.

Alina, the title pretty girl, resigns from her job at a theater in Koszalin and goes with a friend to Michalow in Podlasie. The two take a job at the community cultural center, offered to them by Mariola, Pawel's mother, who has just been appointed mayor of the town. The charismatic mayor rules with a firm hand and sets her own rules not only in the municipality, but also in the family. She is not afraid of risky investments, nosy journalists or not entirely competent officials. He pursues his son's attempts to marry Alina. The plan backfires when Wlodek - the frontman of the band Badylaże - shows up. Alina falls in love with him without memory, forgets about Paul and accepts a quick engagement. The acquaintance ends tragically....

When approached by a rich Warsaw couple to help find the ruins of a church, a villager slowly steals the identity of the woman from the capital.
