What do parents hide from their children? What don’t children want to know, fail to notice or deny about their parents? What do they blame or reproach them for? Adam’s meeting with his father Piotr enables both men to confront their feelings, not always pleasant, and mutual allegations, as well as look at the previous generation - the grandfather and his decisions. Will the discovery of the truth allow both of them to see each other in a different way? Will they be able to mature and fix the blood bond tying them? Who will be supporting whom? It turns out that the most important conversations in life can happen over a meal in an Asian bar and apparently simple cinema, practically set in one location, can become a pretext for an intergenerational exchange, not to mention a solid parking lesson.
