- Samy, a young European parliamentary assistant arrives in Brussels a few weeks after the Brexit referendum. He is obviously not fit for the job. In fact, Samy doesn't know much about European institutions and he hopes to get away with it thanks to his wit and cleverness - Well, though luck: he gets quickly assigned an obscure mission : write a report on finning (the act of removing fins from sharks and discarding the rest of the animal). How do you get a report adopted at the European Parliament? Samy has no clue. He has six months to make it, six months to master the secrets of the Parliament. Powerful forces will work against him - to start with, a general indifference. Nobody cares about saving sharks - they are far less popular than dolphins. Samy embarks on a journey made of trials and sacrifices, alternating between psychodrama and comedy. For the first time in his life, he mustn't do his best - but his job. At the end of season one of The Parliament, Samy will have changed the world. Well, just a tiny bit, but still, Samy will have made a difference. And to be honest, there are not so many youngsters who can say so.

- Stanislaw Brzozowski is one of the world's few professors of mime art. He currently works at the Swedish National Academy of Mime and Acting in Stockholm. The film tells in vivid scenes about the importance of the body for the spoken word. - The students can talk, I know, but can they use themselves, their bodies, their movements to give weight to the words or to complicate the superficial meaning of the words? Stanislaw came to Sweden during the reddest time in Swedish theatre. He talks about how difficult it was to understand the left-wing political pressure that was on Swedish theater at the time. SB was educated in Poland and worked in Wroclaw. He was part of the world-famous Henryk Tomaszewski's mime ensemble until he left Poland for Sweden in 1969. Stanislaw is an active member of one of Stockholm's shooting clubs. He shows in the film that aiming and shooting is the same as loading a line that will carry all the way to the audience in the theater hall. - You can't just throw out a line at random and think it's right, he says. Using his own body as a means of expression, Stanislaw Brosowski offers us a fascinating insight into the innermost core of acting. Actor Dan Ekborg still remembers Stanislaw's harsh teaching. - You never knew if he was joking, so it was safest to do as he said.
