Ania and Adam run pub in Warsaw with friends. It is not a real pub or bar, it is something more, a place where one can meet friends and spend a nice time.
They called it Wetlina because they love the Bieszczady Mountains. Once they used to go there often. Last summer they went to the north, they were fascinated by Tallin. Now they would like to open pub there. They say good-by to the regulars of Warsaw’s Wetlina during a trip to Bieszczady.

Beginning of 1945, Upper Silesia, Poland. The last days of WW2. At the just liberated areas, the Communist Security Service eliminates its enemies under the pretext of punishing “national traitors.” It organizes a labour camp for Germans, Silesians and Poles, at the site of a former Nazi concentration camp, which is named “Zgoda” / “Reconciliation”. Franek, who is in love with a Polish prisoner Anna, joins the camp crew to rescue her. He doesn't know that one of the inmates is Erwin, his German friend, who, like himself, has also loved Anna for a long time. Franek joins Communists in the illusory hope of outsmarting the system.
