 Summary
The Pzoniaks: One hell of a strong sexy mother and one young beautiful daughter.
What can possible go wrong? According to the sensitive father, a lot. Hala grew up as the only daughter in a family of 5 children and one summer she falls for Russell Schuster.
But the love affair with the neighbourhood cop ends up being more than just a short romance. Hala turns out to be pregnant and is forced by her mother to marry the father of her unborn child.
But it's not as easy as it first might seem.
Jadzia Pzoniak - Lena Olin
To Jadzia, the mother of the family, nothing is more important than her children. And nothing can fix your problems better than pickles.
But the question is: can pickles even save her marriage? As she is trying to fix a marriage between her pregnant daughter and the reluctant policeman, she's putting her own at risk while secretly meeting another man, Roman.
The thing is, to her husband, it's not really much of a secret and Bolek fears that every time his wife goes to one of her meetings, she's spending time in another man's arms.
