A touching but at the same time funny story about two sisters, who, despite mutual grievances, are forced to cooperate when faced with a difficult life situation.
These Daughters of Mine is a heart-warming, honest and profound story about family relations. It is as true as life: sometimes sad, sometimes funny.

Beginning of 1945, Upper Silesia, Poland. The last days of WW2. At the just liberated areas, the Communist Security Service eliminates its enemies under the pretext of punishing “national traitors.” It organizes a labour camp for Germans, Silesians and Poles, at the site of a former Nazi concentration camp, which is named “Zgoda” / “Reconciliation”. Franek, who is in love with a Polish prisoner Anna, joins the camp crew to rescue her. He doesn't know that one of the inmates is Erwin, his German friend, who, like himself, has also loved Anna for a long time. Franek joins Communists in the illusory hope of outsmarting the system.
