CATATONIA

Four stories of 20-something people trying to find themselves in adult roles. For Piotrek and Marta, the money they won are supposed to be the key to their happiness. Anka would like to be a famous painter. Gosia and Tomek hope that having a child will solve all their problems. The events are intertwined with a highly manipulated street survey among young people asked about their dreams and goals carried out by Cichy who desperately tries to prove his exceptionality to the world, his brother and himself.
