Knife in the Water

A chance encounter with a hitchhiker turns into a tense sailing trip when a husband invites the young stranger to join them on their yacht, leading to a buildup of hostility between the two men and a violent showdown.

Andrzej and Krystyna's marriage is stale, with contempt brewing beneath the surface. On a Sunday drive to the lake, they almost hit a young hitchhiker, but Andrzej surprisingly offers him a ride. As they reach the lake, their animosity fades, and Andrzej invites the hitchhiker to join their sailing trip.
