Set in pre- and post-war Lviv and Wrocław, Edward Popielski (Marcin Dorocinski) is a detective inspector of extraordinary intellect and physical strength who is tormented by visions caused by epilepsy attacks, which he uses to his advantage in investigations. He works as an officer of the law but operates outside of it. Just like the Erinyes, the Greek goddesses who most desire revenge, Popielski has no mercy in the brutal criminal world he lives in. "Erinyes" is a retrospective crime series that also paints a vivid picture of the Borderlands and post-war Poland, shedding light on the vibrant, multicultural, and beautiful lands that disappeared behind the eastern border.
