The Thaw - HBO Max Series


The Thaw (Odwilż) Season 2 - Special Shoot Teaser DC (Max Original)
Peter Varsics

Police detective partners Kasia (Katarzyna) and Trepa return. Trepa continues to go out of his way to support Kasia. This time they are investigating the murder of a young man that Kasia had pressured to become an informant. The bad guys, besides the usual drug dealing and gambling, are also smuggling underage girls in and turning them into whores. Kasia is still grieving over the loss of her husband who committed suicide. His suicide may have been caused by the moral conflicts he encountered in his undercover work for the police. Her father-in-law has a stroke and his vocabulary is reduced to the f-word.

Centrum in Szczecin, Poland

This big round-about shows up in nighttime aerial shots on a regular basis. I always thought of Poland as being in eastern Europe and technically it is, but Szczecin is almost directly south of Copenhagen, Denmark:

Germany, Poland & Denmark

no it is not. More like almost south of Ronne, Bornholm.

Well, yeah, but who has ever heard of Ronne, Bornholm, besides you and all the people who live there? It isn't even labeled on the map. It was just a shock to me since Denmark is on the western side of Germany and Copenhagen is in Denmark and Poland is on the east side of Germany, how could they possibly be so close, longitude wise? I could have mentioned how close it was to Berlin, but that wasn't weird enough.

Just realized Bornholm is nearby the explosion that broke the Nord Stream pipeline. Guess I should have known that.
