A light-hearted comedy about ordinary people, their desires, dreams and perverse fate which happens on one winter afternoon and night. Four protagonists are looking for peace, success and love. Sometimes, however, what you most need to be happy is luck. Mariusz is a motivational speaker, Joanna takes part in a therapy, Tadeusz would like to try speed dating and Julia wants to develop herself.
