First Million(2000)

First Million is a Polish drama series set in the early 1990s, following three childhood friends—Frik, Kurtz, and Piki—as they chase fortune on the fledgling Warsaw stock exchange. Starting with small ventures like selling waste paper, the trio rapidly scales their ambitions and makes their first million in just months. Their meteoric rise attracts dangerous attention from Kajzar, a ruthless underworld figure with his own stake in the market. As money flows in, personal tensions surface: Frik and Kurtz both harbor long-standing feelings for Dominika, a woman from their past, threatening to fracture their bond. The series explores how greed, ambition, and romantic rivalry test the limits of lifelong friendship during Poland's chaotic transition to a market economy.
