THE PLEASURE PRINCIPLE

MORAVIA, CZECH REPUBLIC

Matěj Nemec,

the other patrolman is in hospital.

The warning was clear.

"He may be armed and dangerous."

You should have called it in
and wait for backup.

Do you have any explanation for this?
They were your subordinates.

Well, one of them still is.
I'm sorry.

Roman was from Ostrava, but
Matěj was from around here.

He may have known Zdeněk Vrabec.
They were the same age.

I'm not trying to make excuses,
for either them or myself, but...

you'd probably also react
differently, captain,

if it was a stranger...

...and differently if it was
an old classmate.

And that's why he fired
half a magazine at him, right?

He killed my witness,
sublieutenant.

Perhaps the only one
we'll ever have.

ODESSA, UKRAINE

This shouldn't have
happened, Viktor.

First Sova, now Vrabec.

We had them hooked.

Shit.

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC

Thanks.

Thanks.

I know this café.

They always have good coffee
and fresh croissants.

I can't even remember last time when
I was here.

I had a girlfriend here once.

She lived with her parents, so
we used to meet in the café.

A girl from a good family and a cop?

She had such a fantasy.

Didn't last long though. Eight
months and she turned me down.

She married a lawyer.

Wiseass. He left his car
a little further.

Should I follow him?

They told us to observe and
take pictures.

He might notice you.

Good morning.

I'm not in until
I tell you otherwise.

Of course. As you wish.

Do you have any idea?

So what number should I call you?
Do you have any other?

Don't panic.

I was there this morning.

It's locked up tight.

But he must have had the keys on him.

It's only a matter of time before
they work out this address.

From your position
you can do more than me.

I don't know, think something up.

ODESSA, UKRAINE

WARSAW, POLAND

Has anyone reported her missing?

No.

Strange.

She's been dead for over a week.

We found her mother.

Janina Zarychta, née Fabisiak.

She is thirty-eight.

She was a young mother.

She has a boarding house
in Mazury,

about one hundred and fifty
kilometres from Warsaw.

In fact, it's his and his
mother's boarding house.

She simply married into it.

And the father?

All she got from him was
his surname, most likely.

No address, no place of residence.

If he's alive, he's forty-seven.

When was that?

It's last year's...

last year's edition of the programme.

What else do we know about her?

On Facebook, Instagram and
YouTube she put loads of videos

of her singing her own
versions of popular songs.

Covers.

Besides... she was registered
with a modelling agency,

but the own...

...the owner told me...

her photos just sat on
the website

without bringing her any work.

Surprising symmetry.

Věra Vitová, Lída Beyerová,
now Bożena Kaczmarek.

Why has no one been looking
for her?

On the day she flew to Odessa
she wrote on Facebook that...

she was just beginning a fantastic
adventure and let everyone fuck off.

Said she wouldn't even
answer her phone.

What about Rekin Films?

Their participation in the production of
that slasher flick was purely financial.

They just shelled out cash.

And did so again last year.

A cheap slasher
made in Serbia.

Plus, two years ago they put up the cash
for a horror film made in Romania.

Low budgets, mixed production,
third-rate casts.

Loads of blood and tits.

Laundry?

Any way you slice it, that's
the obvious conclusion.

The key is...

the company's owner,
Zygmunt Bednarek.

Better known as 'Gianni'
to some.

Marek took a photo of him for you.

He was just leaving his office.

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC

- Hi.
- Hello.

Do you know who he is?

I think I know.

- Hello, Daniela.
- Hello.

Thank you for coming.

Right...

How do you find work in
my former office?

I'm slowly getting used to.

- Hello.
- Hello.

- What will you have?
- A coffee.

An espresso or lungo?

- Just an espresso, thank you.
- I'll be right back.

Will you make big changes there?

At the moment I'm not thinking
about it, at all.

Every new boss usually
wants to make their mark.

So you invited me to talk about
interior design?

Cutting retort, as always.

Actually, I have a request.

Well, I want you to do
something for me.

What's the matter?

There was a murder on the outskirts
of Prague the day before yesterday.

The victim is a certain Milan Sova.
You may have already heard about it.

I've heard.

You want sugar?

No.

I need all the information
on the investigation.

But I'm not in charge of it.

But your lover is leading it.

He's not my lover.
He's my partner.

I'm too old for all
this correctness.

You can have a partner in business.
And you two fuck each other.

You're vulgar.

As if you didn't know that.

You know very well
I won't do this.

I know very well you
have no other choice.

I arranged this promotion
for you.

You owe it to me only.

So I really deserve
a bit of gratitude.

Honestly I was hoping you'd show your
gratitude in another way.

But the circumstances have changed.

You do what I'm asking for
and we're even.

So you should be happy
that's all I want.

You're disgusting.

But I'm still pulling the strings.

Stop, stop, stop. Sorry.

- Captain Valenta, I presume.
- That's right.

I have a moment now,
so we can talk.

I won't take much of your time.

OK, let's go.

Let's prepare, we'll be shooting
in two minutes.

Zygmunt Bednarek, the Polish
producer of that film.

- Do you remember him?
- It's hard to forget him.

He often came to the set.

He dressed and behaved like a jerk.

I guess only Poles can be such
simpletons. Maybe Russians too.

Lída Beyerová was his lover.

Are you sure?

Girls, wardrobe,
I don't see you on the set yet.

We had to stop shooting
when he came...

because Lída had to give
him a kiss.

Everyone will confirm you that.

So, last check-ups,
and let's roll!

MAZURY REGION, POLAND

Good afternoon.

We'd like to talk to
Mrs Janina Zarychta.

Mum isn't home, she went
shopping.

She'll be right back.

It's nice here.

I haven't been to Mazury region
for a long time.

I should take a long holiday at last
and come here with Lenka.

How much unused leave
time do you have?

Well over a month.

We'll close this case and you can
take daughter for a long holiday.

I'll apply to Woźniak about it.

If we close it at all.

If they don't give us the boot
earlier and send us to prison.

I had no choice.

Either you're loyal or you're
a piece of shit.

Wasiak has no evidence.

I know.

So let's not talk about it.

And how are things with...

Sorry, I can't remember
her name.

Justyna.

Ups and downs.

In general, it's OK.

But she doesn't really
like children.

When I get Lenka for the weekend, she
ostentatiously goes back to her place.

- But she comes back.
- Yeah...

But it affects Lenka.

She knows it's because of her.

She's afraid I won't
see her anymore.

Justyna and I are quite
good together,

but hell, I can't be with someone...

who can't accept the fact that
I'm a father.

This is something I can't change
in my life anymore.

She's already here!

Mrs. Janina Zarychta?

Yes. For how long you
would like to rent a room?

- Chief commissioner Maria Sokołowska.
- Józef Krawiec, commissioner.

District police command from Warsaw.

We need to talk.

- What's the matter?
- Not in front of the child.

Adaś...

Adaś!

Go upstairs and play on your
computer, okay?

But dad forbade me.

I know, I give you special permission.
I'll explain it to dad.

Go on, go and play, alright?

So?

Your daughter, Bożena Kaczmarek,
is dead.

Pardon?

She's a murder victim.

Ukrainian policemen found your
daughter's mutilated body in Odessa.

What do you mean by "mutilated"?

Her right arm was cut off
above the elbow.

We know for sure that it was
done after her death.

She was not tortured or raped.

We would like to find the ones
who killed your daughter.

Why did she fly to Odessa?

Was she supposed to meet someone
there or was it just a holiday?

When did you last see your daughter?

A long time ago.

Be more precise, please.

Around...

Two years ago. Is that better?

And...

it was her who didn't want to see me.

Want a drink?

It's not a good idea.

I've never had any good ideas.

So another shitty idea is not
such a failure.

Why didn't Bożena want to see you?

Because I was an egotistical
bitch, not a mother?

Because I allowed her to
move out from this house.

When did this happen?

I was pregnant.
We all lived here together...

She "irritated him with her
teenage sexuality".

That's what he said.

I'll never forget those words.

I really wanted to
give him a son and...

I didn't want him to rape her.

Was there such a risk?

Where did she stay?

With...

With my brother and...

and his wife.

As much as I could, I provided
for her support.

- Your husband didn't chip in?
- She isn't his child.

What about her father?

Did he give her anything more
than his surname?

I don't even know if
he's still alive.

She was supposed to be...

my little princess.

Fuck, I don't know why
it didn't work out...

I've killed her, right?

What's going on here?

District police command from Warsaw.

What's the matter?

Bożena Kaczmarek, Janina's
daughter, is dead.

It was a murder.

What are you doing?

Look at you!

Have you no shame?

Drinking at this hour?

In front of your child and
with another child coming?

Don't you know that today is
a no-computer day?

And he's banging on that game
so hard my head is splitting!

Mum, please, not now,
not at this moment...

Go to the bathroom at once
and tidy yourself up.

Can you hear me?!
Go to the bathroom right now!

No!

You get out of here, right now.

Just remember that I've warned you.

Can we help you in anything else?

Bożena Kaczmarek didn't have
neither a father nor a mother.

She had an uncle and an aunt.

Some guy made you, he gave you his surname,
but disappeared. Forever.

Then your mum kicks you out of
the house when you're fourteen.

There's a horrible gap between

who you want to be

and how you're judged by the ones
that should be closest to you.

But they're not,

because they reject you.

And then you're a victim.

ODESSA, UKRAINE

This is major Viktor Seifert
from the Prague police.

We're conducting
an investigation together.

Do you recognize him?

It's Milan Sova from Prague.

He's a client of my office.

Not anymore.

He was shot
two days ago in Prague.

That's sad news.

These are his killers.

Arvydas Bielauskas,
a Lithuanian citizen,

and Igor Piskun, a Ukrainian.

I can see they...

got what they deserved.

Have you ever seen them?

Did you invite me here only
to ask this idiotic question?

Milan Sova's wife claims

he was killed by some Ukrainians
he'd been doing business with.

I'll send you a list of all the
Ukrainian companies

Mr Sova was doing business with.

And you yourself can understand

whether it is...

likely.

I'll be very grateful.

Would this list include
any companies... owned by...

Kyrill Matvieyenko?

No.

And I'd definitely advise
my client against

such trade relations.

Why so? You were Kirill's
defence lawyer.

A lawyer, like a doctor...

can't refuse.

Why would you advise
Milan Sova against...

doing business with
Kyrill Matvieyenko?

Are you such a poor policeman

or are you showing off
in front of your Czech colleague?

We both know perfectly well who
Kyrill Matvieyenko is

and what he does.
Right?

So for a businessman from
the Czech Republic

this would be, let's say,

very troublesome.

In every respect.

Maybe that's why they killed him.

If he...

did something stupid,

I didn't take part in it.

Which is doubly sad,

because it means

he didn't trust me.

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC

Hi, baby.

How are you doing?

I miss you.

Do you know when
you're coming back?

Alright.

Sorry for bothering you now, but...

it looks like my new position

means our cases are
starting to cross.

I mean Milan Sova's murder.

You know what?

Say nothing more.

I'd feel like an utter fool
knowing you're lying.

Kohout is involved in this.

We have pictures of him here.

So let's finish this talk.

Goodnight.

WARSAW, POLAND

Don't you smoke?

Me neither.

Such a divorce is a tough thing.

In fact, I ended up
on the streets.

But you behaved decently.

And your children will appreciate
that one day.

Listen, write to the Ukrainians fast,

so that Serhij can come to us
or to the Czechs.

Do you think he'll be necessary?

We have a severed arm in Prague,

cut off after the woman
was already dead.

Sooner or later someone
needs to sort it out.

Either you or Rosner.

And do it tomorrow.

Maria...

Do you control this?

One day I get the impression
everything perfectly fits together...

The next, I feel like...

I'm banging my head
against the wall...

You know this feeling.

ODESSA, UKRAINE

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

WARSAW, POLAND

Hi, Barbara.

I got back from Odesca today,
in the morning, bringing a dead body.

And then went
straight to Mazury.

Now I'm standing in front
of my place and I'm barely alive.

So it's impossible for me to
take mum at the moment...

So take him to some restaurant,
you can afford it,

if you think our mother
with Alzheimer's disease

will bother this great
artist so much.

Especially as this whore's
gonna be with him.

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC

Something is happening.

Two men...

ODESSA, UKRAINE

A locksmith.

Says the other guy googled him.

Police!

Hands up!

Get down!

Freeze!

Ground.

Ground.
