Plot Summary:Three strangers living in Silesia - a 12-year-old half-orphan, a musically talented girl and a middle-aged unemployed ex-miner - are all desperate to get money to make their small dreams come true.
Three individuals: young Sebastian, a teenage Marta, and a fifty-something Józef don’t know each other, but their fates are tied together because of a common need – the need to raise a small, but at the moment indispensable, amount of money. In the process of fulfilling this need, they fight to maintain their dignity in tact and their dreams alive.
