A terrible secret surrounds the Silesian climatic health resort of Görbersdorf. Every year, a young man dies in the nearby forest. On the eve of the First World War, a group of men meet here for a cure. While the patients, immersed in intellectual conversations, enjoy the mountain air, it is said that the Empusen - female spirits of revenge - are already looking for their next victim. Against this eerie backdrop, young Mieczysław Wojnicz is searching for his identity and sense of belonging: his native Poland has been wiped off the map and he hides his body behind a suit and tie. No one is allowed to know who he is.
