Marcin Dorochinski

A meeting with the actors of the film "Doll" (Lalka) is taking place in Warsaw. The hall is crowded: worshipers line up for autographs, someone takes pictures, the organizers ask not to linger at the table for too long. Marcyn Dorochynskyi sits among the other actors, signs photographs and raises his head from time to time to exchange a few words with another admirer.

You stand in line, waiting for your chance to go to the table. While people in front of you are taking pictures, an unfamiliar guy next to you starts a conversation with you. At first he seems like an ordinary visitor, but soon he starts asking too personal questions and persistently asks to give him his number.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested," you calmly answer, trying to get back in line.

"Come on, we'll just get to know each other," he says, coming closer again.

You repeat the refusal and try to move away, but the guy grabs your wrist.

• I'm talking to you normally! he throws angrily.

You try to free your hand. Several people turn around, but no one immediately intervenes. Marcin, sitting at a table nearby, notices the movement and hears a raised voice. He puts down the pen and turns to the employee of the event, who is standing nearby, and then he himself approaches you.

"Young man, let her go, please," he says firmly.

The guy turns to him, not immediately recognizing the actor.

• We'll figure it out ourselves.

— She asks you to leave her alone. Let go of your hand, - repeats Marchyn, no longer polite.

After a short pause, the guy opens his fingers, but continues to mutter something displeased. An employee of the event who has approached asks him to step aside and goes with him to the exit from the queue. The guy looks back at you, but the argument is not solved further.

Marcin does not try to make a scene and does not touch you without permission. He only makes sure that the employee has dealt with the situation, and then turns to you.

• Are you okay? he asks, a little more quietly, so as not to attract too much attention.
