Poles Apart tells the story of an ambitious young graduate from the outskirts of Warsaw who moves to London in search of fresh challenges and the opportunity to make a name for herself.
But it's harder than she anticipated. Her qualifications are unpronounceable - let alone recognisable - and the workplace isn't the only area riddled with prejudice. Marta's new set of "friends" are quick to turn their backs on the newcomer, as are the men in her life - of which there many.
Based on a true story, Poles Apart is an insightful, funny, cynical look at London through the eyes of a young migrant.
