The story of a young and ambitious shoeshine boy. Every day, he shows up at Galeria Mokotów in Warsaw to keep shoes clean. When he goes to work in the morning, he sees hundreds of pairs of shoes pouring out of the Warsaw subway. For him, these aren't just shoes. They're a job! But the hero of the film isn't just a shoeshine boy. He's also a dreamer. And, of course, a future millionaire. He believes in the "American dream." After all, there is a fine line between a shoeshine boy and a millionaire. He believes that sooner or later he will become a millionaire. If someone in America can do it, why can't someone in Warsaw?
