While Marek is leaving work he meets strange woman, Elżbieta, and is led by her into a trap. Badly beaten he is being left at the waste dump. Close to death he lands in a hospital. His mother and brother find him there, but Marek doesn’t recognize them. He, however, recognizes Elżbieta, who unexpectedly visits him. Marek suffers from amnesia, but he associates the woman with danger. He runs away from the hospital.
