SYNOPSIS

Thirty-year-old Izabela dreams of becoming a writer, but she's too busy being Mother Teresa of Michałowice. Her world crumbles when she catches her husband cheating, and her conservative family sides with the couple. Hurt, Izabela embarks on an affair with Gerard, whom she meets by chance. Influenced by a friends-with-benefits relationship, or rather, benefits-without-friends, she discovers her sexuality and begins writing comedic erotic stories, which, out of respect for her family, she publishes under a pseudonym. To Izabela's surprise, the book is a resounding success. As a proud woman, she no longer wants to hide, but she must confront the fear of losing her loved ones and decide whether to reveal the truth about herself.
