About Film

In a fairy-tale village lives Jakubek, a former legionnaire. He buried his wife some time ago and now lives with his adult but very shy son Janeczek. Three of Jakubek's comrades-in-arms also live in the same village: Kotek, Ingatko, and Gniewisz. For some time now, the legionnaires have been talking more and more about dying. Jakubek, the oldest of them, already has a beautiful coffin prepared and longs for death because he misses Brzózka, his youthful love, very much.
