The story is set in the Polish-Soviet borderland, at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s. After the death of the gang leader and head of the family, the power in the criminal Lewenfisz clan passes into the hands of his daughter, Róża. Together with her sisters, she continues her father's shady business and does everything to resist the growing Soviet bandits, led by the conservative Lew.
Maciej Bochniak co-wrote the script together with Mateusz Kościukiewicz. The cast of popular actors includes Maja Ostaszewska, Borys Szyc, Andrzej Chyra, Mateusz Kościukiewicz, Dawid Ogrodnik, Magdalena Boczarska and Agata Kulesza.
