Synopsis
Mikołaj, an oceanography student, arrives to do his internship at the Marine Station in Hel. Under the watchful eye of his boss, Professor Krzysztof Skóra, he cares for a newborn seal. A male, he is given the name of Hel. Mikołaj teaches him how adapt to life in the wild. Before he can be released into the Baltic, Hel has to learn how to live with the herd, find his own food and, most important of all, how to avoid contact with humans. And what of that, as pupil and teacher begin to be bound by a ‘dangerous’ thread of friendship…?
Meanwhile, the day approaches when the fully-fledged Hel, a wild animal, will have to leave the Station. Professor Skóra and other members of the scientific team have passed on numerous professional skills to Mikołaj. Will this knowledge stand him in good stead on the day when feelings come into play? (51' version for television also available)
