The story is set in present-day Poland. A group of actors from Prague, led by the play's director, come to Krakow to perform a stage adaptation of Dostoyevsky's play "The Brothers Karamazov", which is based on the investigation of a patricide, at an alternative festival in an unconventional steelworks. The emotionally charged play - love, jealousy, hatred - deals with questions of faith, immortality and the redemption of the human soul. Against the backdrop of a theater rehearsal, we follow the lives of the performers, the comic stories of the actors and the director. The plot is also disrupted by the personal tragedy of an audience member who makes an unusual request: He asks the actors to perform just for him. The rehearsal turns into a gripping performance in which the actors play for a single spectator. Suddenly, the greatest drama takes place not on stage, but in the audience...
"Karamazovi" is a drama about morality, human nature, the human conscience, guilt, punishment and forgiveness. The film is not only a psychological examination of the devastated Russian soul, but also reflects the current topic of man's responsibility for his actions.
