This intriguing comedy-drama centers on the 60-year-old Andzia (Ewa Dalkowska) and her strong, deep-rooted provincial morality as she reminisces about her childhood, her marriage, and her grown son and daughter. Andzia's strict upbringing instills a sense of veneration for her community and the people in it, while the honesty of her parents serves as a model for her own behavior. When she marries (after a comic wedding night), she and her quite compatible husband start a family -- and then tragedy strikes.
