IF FISH COULD TALK

GDYBY RYBY MIAŁY GŁOS

Wojtek, despite being 30, still believes in a legend about a Great Fish swimming in a nearby lake. He spends all his time trying to catch it. It's not the matter of interest to his over-caring mother, Wanda, who on her son's birthday decides to arrange his life – finds a girlfriend, she buys him an apartment and makes him a marketing specialist in her own company producing drills. Fairy tale about maladjustment, dreams and sick love.
