The film opens with a scene likely to cause discomfort, particularly for male viewers. Following this, it develops into an absorbing drama centered on "Daniel" (Bartosz Bielenia). He’s residing in a juvenile detention facility, where he assists the priest during services and expresses interest in becoming a member of the clergy. However, his situation isn't due to minor mischief, so that career path seems improbable. The possibility of release arises, and he chooses to impersonate a temporary replacement for a religious leader in a close-knit community. His energy, excitement, and unusual approach are initially welcomed by the local people. Over time, though, he comes to understand that this town harbors deep conflicts, and resolving them will require all his intelligence and resourcefulness while forcing him to confront who he used to be. The appearance of an old "associate" threatens his progress, leading him to face difficult choices—whether he wants to or not. Bielenia delivers a strong performance here. He effectively blends the traits of someone without direction with those of a man seeking purpose, displaying an energetic portrayal that’s anything but conventional. The story raises some questions about faith, absolution, and features a capable supporting cast who highlight the contrast between his former life and his current one—a life where he might have discovered his calling, if only he could outrun his history. While I wasn't entirely satisfied with how things ended, overall it’s a well-crafted story about faith and morality that doesn’t demand religious garments to offer inspiration.
