Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
The brief, tender love-affair enjoyed by a shy hotel waiter is one focus of this bittersweet romantic comedy. On a rainy night, a young lady comes into the waiter's restaurant, fleeing her abusive boyfriend. The waiter takes her in and allows her to help with the chores until the boyfriend locates her and wafts her away again. The alternative plot follows the exploits of a bumbling twosome, Eftim and Pecho (Pavel Popandov and Stefan Mavrodiev) who are attempting to run away from home.
