A complex, introspective portrait of four women navigating desire, constraint, and self-discovery in post-communist Poland's uncertain dawn.

Poland, 1990. The first euphoric year of freedom, but also of uncertainty for the future. Four apparently happy women of different ages decide it's time to change their lives, and fulfill their desires.
