The Mother, the Daughter, the Grandmother, the Neighbor, and many other nameless characters gradually come together in a room that initially looks as if it came out of a child's drawing and only gradually, fluidly changes from a post-communist era apartment into a TV studio. Their humorously absurd-sounding monologues, delivered in lofty language at an incredible clip, rarely connect into dialogue. Taken together, however, they create a picture of Poland as a society that still hasn't been able to recover from the loss of their former oppression, and is schizophrenically torn between feelings of national pride and shame. Leaflets offering discounts, television, beauty in its most commercial form; all of these artifacts become integral props in the film adaptation of the popular eponymous theater piece by Polish playwright Dorota Masłowska. Such is the backdrop for encounters between the nouveaux riches and a middle class living on the edge of poverty, and for three different generations, each with its own unique social trauma.
