After being born, Jan and Nikodem, two children from two unrelated families, both with the surname Kowalski, get mixed up in the hospital, ending up with the wrong families. Jan ends up with businessperson Piort Kowalski, and his wife, Anna, who are a rich family living in a luxurious villa. Meanwhile, Nikodem ends up with Henryk and Jadwiga Kowalski, a poor uneducated family living in a ramshackle cottage. After 17 years two families discover the truth about their children.[1]
