You're going to Warsaw, Jerzy.

Your ministry of culture
is to buy "Players" Cezanne.

Poland cannot afford Cezanne.

And there is no such painting on the market.

Put it up.

They can't buy this Cezanne.



Understand?

You know Alice Wakar?

Ministry of Culture
Department of historical value protection

RINGING PHONE

Yes?

Okay, I'll be right there.

Coffee for the lady.

I didn't know if you would come.

Jerzy, I work in the ministry.

I can't meet
with painting counterfeiters.

Even though they
are friends of my father.

You are buying Cezanne's "Players".

I know your opinion.
How do you know it?

I haven't finished it yet.



Eavesdropping: That's why we're talking.

RINGING PHONE

Avi Schmidt.

He wouldn't convince her.

Internal Security Agency

I don't like this office.

There is no trace of you here,
like you haven't been sitting here in a hundred years.

Look.

My photo doesn't count.

It doesn't count at all.

But I look at it a lot.

Why did you call me?

You buy Cezanne's "Players".
Basically yes.

Substantially.

My father's friend visited me.

Argued it was a fake.

Open it up.

I saw him this morning.
They found him on Poznańska Street.

He said Cezanne was a fake.

How did he know we were buying it?
I was wondering too.

Don't buy this painting.

How? This is impossible.

Fake the expertise.

It's the original Cezanne.
So what?

Fake it. And go to Krakow.

They killed for it
so that we wouldn't buy a painting.

They'll probably steal it.

Did you know it's my sister's painting?
I know.

My friend will contact you.
He catches the painting thieves.

And he really wants to meet you.

His name is Szatner.
Inspector Szatner.

And it catches painting thieves ...

A bit of a freak.

You will see a number.
PHONE BEEP

CHUCKLE

He pasted it on himself.

Ministry of Culture

The version and the study
are semantic issues.

Counterfeit
this is not a semantic matter.

Cezanne painted
a whole series of such paintings.

But he didn't paint it.

Can I?

"Liberte toujours".

Americans say
that this is Cezanne's original,

with all due respect.

Mrs. Alicja?

My opinion.

I have two divergent
chemical analyzes of the canvas.

This is a fake

I think we're done.

We're not buying a Cezanne.

Please send the painting back to Krakow.

RINGING PHONE

Avi Schmidt.

They're not buying Cezanne.

- What now?
- I'm going to Krakow.

Take your time, Karl.

Police

Szatner.

Alice Wakar.

I've seen you before.

You don't remember that.

I was a guest at your house.

I know your father.
And I don't remember that.

Thank you for coming.

You found the stolen Coin,
it's here.

Nine years ago.
I even liked this thief.

Your father helped me.
Catch or like?

Can I?

I have no contact with my father.

But are you in touch with Ewa Wakar?

With my sister?

Your sister
is a great marchand.

She recently wanted
to sell Cezanne's "Players".

What do you want from me,
inspector?

You have a minute.
Who is this man?

Rajski was a friend of the house.
I knew him since I was a child.

Painting counterfeit.
Best.

But you are not investigating
about his death?

No, but I'm interested in
Cezanne's painting.

Rajski claimed
that the painting was a fake.

Mrs. Alicja,

tell me
about your last conversation.

This is the most nutty
of all Chablis

and supposedly the best.

You know wine,
but what about Cezanne?

The ministry buys the painting
for 7 million dollars.

I have three independent reports.
From the US and London.

This is Cezanne. We buy.

Do you want to pay 7 million
for a counterfeit?

You are telling nonsense.

This painting wants to buy MoMA
from New York.

You know the market

there are six original
versions of Cezanne.

But one is a forgery.

This is your canvas, Alice.

Rajski claimed it was a fake,

someone shoots him in the head,
and the lady changes her opinion.

Then I believed him.

Got it.

I'm leaving.

Say hello to sister.

Your sister
brilliantly fakes paintings.

I love my sister.

Tell me something about her.

I won't tell you anything.

All right. One question.

You quit your job
at the department of art history

and left Krakow
three years ago.

What's the question?

Because of your sister?

I took her boyfriend.

Then I left it.

You left your husband.

Staś Bielecki.
He still teaches at the academy.

How do you know that?

Everything is on Facebook.

I don't have a Facebook account.

Have a nice cup of tea,
inspector.

Moryc is already asleep.

Release the dogs, Moryc.

When you come back?

Afternoon. Buy you something?

Yes, cherry strudel.

Release dogs.

RINGING PHONE

Shalom.

And what is the child doing so much at night?

Alejchem shalom, Natan.

I'll be there in the morning.

Your brother Moryc orders a strudel.

Cherry strudel from Cafe Central

will wait.

Academy of Fine Arts
Krakow

I know where it is.

Nice to see you.

Yesterday night someone called an ambulance.

The old man caught the thief
and suffered a heart attack.

Why did you bring me in?
Nothing seems to have been lost.

What's valuable here?

If you had anything to pick up.

Country scene, Willem Kalf,
mid 17th century.

He painted in Amsterdam.

It's strange that such an painting
is at some old man's house.

How much is it worth?

This?

Thousand.

For a thousand you can buy
such a copy on Allegro.

How much is the original?

Several hundred thousand euro.
Or more.

Commissioner Selena Luiz.
You look good.

- Are you a Cuban?
- No. Mexican.

What do you remember, Mr. Weiss?

A young girl ...

blonde, pretty.

Is something missing?

When you get home, we'll arrange it.

We don't know anything yet.

Now we have to draw a portrait of this lady.

Can you draw?

We are looking for a blonde.

In Weiss's antique shop
we found no traces.

Even if the old man recognizes it,
will be hard to bring charges.

Unless she still has an painting.

But it's gone, right?

I'm not a policeman,
inspector.

You are here as a consultant.

I don't know much about painting
Dutch eighteenth century.

Seventeenth.
You see.

All right.
The old man may have died.

She called an ambulance.

He may have died.

Take this. He lives ...
I know where he lives.

DOG BARKING

They didn't buy Cezanne.

We will sell it to Americans.

We are not selling anyone.

How's that? Your grandfather gave it ...
I know.

My grandfather
gave it to yours in March '42.

Instead, you have a tree in Yad Vashem.

That wasn't okay, Moryc.

It was perfectly fine.
It wasn't.

It shouldn't hang in my house.
And it won't.

Either you take it,
or I will sell it.

This is your painting

but this history
you will not change anyway.

Your grandfather saved my family.
He deserved Cezanne.

Drink until it's cold.

KNOCKING

LOVELY MUSIC

Are you faking it?

Beer?
I don't want to.

What do you want?

Eve is having trouble.

Is my partner in trouble?

He lives with the fagot Moryc
- that's no problem.

Max, it doesn't say that.

It is not said: Negro, fagot
and that we are pulling the cane of the Americans.

Exactly.
What do you want?

When you're done,
then I'll sell this painting to you.

MoMA!

Co - MoMA?
MoMA purchased this painting.

You are selling to New York,
then you can call Moryc "gay".

After three years you enter
and teach me Polish?

NOISE OF WATER UNDER SHOWER

DOOR KNOCK

Open up!

Ala?

Max is bathing.

I came for the painting.

Yet infinite.

When did you come back?

I wasn't leaving, Moryc.

Go now.

MAX, BEHIND THE DOOR:
Who were you talking to?

With nobody.

LOUD MALE VOICE SHOUTING

Come on, go ahead.

CHEERING CRIES

Ambulance! Fuck, an ambulance is needed!

Fuck you!
The cops will take me again.

Hello, Moryc.
Hello.

BARKING DOG
Demon! Come on.

Eve! The sister is back.

Hi.

I brought wine.

Come on.

It's good to live with him.

Does that mean you're alone?

Doesn't mean.

I saw Staś at the academy.
Staś has a wife, leave him alone.

Wasn't that
the most beautiful boy,

how was it going around the world?

That was my boyfriend.

He was beautiful. You can say
that I fell in love with it.

I don't know why I left him.

Shut up, Ala.

You are not giving a sign of life
for three years,

suddenly you come to my house.

Good to see you, but come on.

Drink this wine and leave Staś.

You didn't quit him,
you just got divorced.

I dumped him first,
then I got divorced.

Will you tell me what are you here for?

A funny policeman
asked me for a favor.

His name is Szatner.

He catch painting thieves.

He was father's student?
Yes, and now he's catching thieves.

Nice painting.

There is one more.

This is called a lineup.

You will be standing
like Kevin Spacey in the movie,

and through the glass
someone will be watching you.

When will this lineup?
In the morning. On the Siemiradzkiego street.

Waste of time.
Dress up nicely.

I always dress nice.
Get a lawyer.

Are you sure Mr. Weiss?

Yes. I'm sure.

Yes, Moryc, five minutes.

Waste of time.

I suppose he told you
not to leave town?

Szatner, funny mister policeman?

He didn't tell me anything.

Police

I have college, but they let it go.

What college, Max?

I run fight club.

Illegal fights for money.

You said you were selling to the US

Sasnal sells to the States.

I like to do this.
Fight club ...

With bandits.

They will hurt you.

You are very upset.

Go

Come on, go ahead.

Why did you take me from the killers?

Do I have to work
with only girls?

And this new maiden where did she come from?

No matter where, no matter what for.

You listened this morning
Max Jasiński

and you released it.

He's a fighter, fan.

He fights,
no one has died yet.

What was I supposed to keep him for?
You know he's a nice painter?

What painter?

paintings paints.

Painter?

Why did you take this miss?

Because he loves his sister.

Which steals paintings.

Will your sister help you catch your sister?
Forget it.

But she's cool.

It's good to work with someone
who has similar tastes.

Bless you.

Mix it up or it will burn.

Are you crazy?

Szatner. Connect me
with the Vienna office of Interpol.

Yes, Vienna.

HARMONY SOUNDS

My sister is back.

I'm not interested.

HARMONY SOUNDS

For a copy of Kalfa
you will get 15,000 euro.

When?
Moryc will bring you.

And how do you meet
with my sister ...

I'm not interested.

When you meet again
with my sister, remember

that she works for the police.

Go ahead.

Hold on.

AWAY
- DOOR OPENING SOUND

As they shine,
then why are they not burning?

Because this light is not warm,
Stasiu.

How - is it not?

You are new to fireflies.

My sister and I caught them in jars.

Father made holes in the caps,
so that they could breathe.

Eve caught the most.

Her jar shone like a lantern,
and mine was empty.

Poor girl.

So what happened next?

I stole those fireflies.

She pretended not to see it.

The thief.

Your father
warned me about you.

You should have listened to my father.

Leave your keys
when you leave.
