Zofia’s life is full of bad luck. She’s naively romantic, doesn’t like her Job, and every day’s annoyances start to wear her down. The real troubles begin when she meets her ex-boyfriend she has tried to hide from in a different city. The girl believes his transformation at first, but their relationship once again turns into a series of arguments and verbal abuse.
