Plot: Bruno Volta, a spin-doctor and a
hustler, meets his challenge when one day his partner, Agnieszka, meets under
unusual circumstances a girl named Viki. Agnieszka’s new friend finds a
mysterious and extremely precious object in the wall of an old house that grabs
Volta’s undivided and total attention: the crown that belonged to Casimir the
Great, the last medieval Polish king from Piast dynasty. Volta cannot miss this million-dollar
opportunity. Together with the bodyguard, Dycha, he is ready for anything to
get possession of the treasure. However, it will not be as easy as it seems
because innocent-looking Viki is in fact a worthy rival. The film takes place
in one of Poland’s oldest and most beautiful cities, Lublin, and continues in
the tradition of Machulski’s best caper stories: Vabank and Vinci.
