Description
"Niespokojni ludzie to zakręcona komedia o dramacie zakładników pojmanych w trakcie oglądania mieszkania na sprzedaż. Kiedy po nieudanym napadzie na bank zamaskowana jednostka z bronią w ręku wbiega do wystawionego na sprzedaż mieszkania, z przerażeniem odkrywa, że właśnie przez przypadek wydłużyła listę swoich przewinień o wzięcie zakładników. I to, jak się szybko okazuje, najgorszych zakładników, jakich świat widział. Bo jest wśród nich nadmiernie rozentuzjazmowana agentka nieruchomości, zgorzkniałe małżeństwo uzależnione od wypadów do Ikei, złośliwa multimilionerka, przygnębiona staruszka, kobieta w zaawansowanej ciąży i jej wkurzająca partnerka oraz typ z głową królika. Kiedy zakładnicy zostają uwolnieni, policja wpada do mieszkania, ale okazuje się ono... puste."--taniaksiazka.pl.
Description
Looking at real estate isn't usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can't fix their own marriage. There's a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can't seem to agree on anything. Add to the mix an eighty-seven-year-old woman who has lived long enough not to be afraid of someone waving a gun in her face, a flustered but still-ready-to-make-a-deal real estate agent, and a mystery man who has locked himself in the apartment's only bathroom, and you've got the worst group of hostages in the world. Each of them carries a lifetime of grievances, hurts, secrets, and passions that are ready to boil over. None of them is entirely who they appear to be. And all of them-the bank robber included-desperately crave some sort of rescue. As the authorities and the media surround the premises, these reluctant allies will reveal surprising truths about themselves and set in motion a chain of events so unexpected that even they can hardly explain what happens next.
