SYNOPSIS

Aśka struggles with loneliness and addiction when she meets Antek, a man struggling with his failing marriage. A closeness develops between them that neither expected. Initially, they try to keep their distance, but a chance encounter encourages them to pursue a romance. When they finally become truly close, differences in expectations and a fear of trust stand in their way. It's not a lack of affection that separates them, but a lack of courage. After some time, they meet again—more mature, and grateful for what they shared.
