Plot

Students are staying at a summer linguistics study camp. One of the directors, Jarosław, is young and prefers a direct, informal approach. He is opposed by the manipulative Jakub. For example, Jarosław allows a dissident student to participate. While the jury prize is given to a poor paper, the unconventional school of thought still receives a recommendation. When the deputy rector arrives for the closing ceremonies, and since he rejects the unofficial view, tensions rise. They climax when the student bites the rector's ear. The police are called in.
