In 1999, Mira Kryle (Magdalena Popławska) runs to the studio; she's almost late. The presenter is supposed to conduct the TV contest on the occasion of New Year's Eve. The prize in the competition is quite something for the 1999/2000 year; it's the Matiz car, one of Poland's most popular vehicles at the time. The frivolous atmosphere swiftly transforms into something more ominous, and Mira wishes that she was late when Sebastian (Bartosz Bielenia) enters the place with a gun and takes Mira and a security guard, Grzegorz (Andrzej Kłak) hostage. Prime Time, directed by Jakub Piątek, is his directorial feature debut that premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. The film touches upon the issues of incompetence of those in charge in tough situations, mass media, and displays Poland's picture at the beginning of the new millennium.
Sebastian has only one demand; he wants to go live and talk to the audience across Poland.
