Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for action fans. If you loved The Day of the Jackal or Black Sails, start here.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, episodes of about 45 minutes, about 5 hours in all.
What might put you off
It's in Polish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

It's the early 1990s. Frik (Szymon Bobrowski), Kurtz (Przemysław Sadowski), and Piki (Aleksander Semchev) are childhood friends. They started out selling waste paper to collectors, then began searching for new ways to make money. They only began doing real business on the fledgling Polish stock exchange. In the space of a few months, they make their first million. Along the way, they run afoul of Kajzar (Jarosław Gajewski), a prominent underworld figure operating on the stock exchange. The friendship of Frik, Kurtz, and Piki is put to the test, as the former two compete for Dominika (Agnieszka Warchulska), with whom they have had a crush since childhood.
