A film impression set to classical music, with a narrative layer inspired by the vocal performance of Fryderyk Chopin's Ballade in F minor, Op. 52 , by the Novi Singers. The starting point is the separateness, the loneliness, of the bodies, souls, thoughts, and feelings of a woman and a man. In the empty space of the frame, day dawns, and the light moves toward the west. Dusk falls, then night, then day again. The dark silhouette of a man appears. He looks for something at the other end of the road. He waits. As night falls, he disappears, and the white silhouette of a woman appears. She, too, waits, looks for it.

Such changes took place in Poland over a period of several months - from the end of 1988 to the end of January 1990? Michał Bielawski, through the prism of official and underground archives, shows the then state of mind of Poles, their fears, hopes and reflections. Film materials from the 1988-1990 period are in harmony with the photographs and diaries written by Poles at that time, as well as with the messages about the changes taking place. We observe the most important political, social and moral events of that period, confronted or reinforced by the comments of their active observers: ordinary people, politicians of the government camp and oppositionists.

A film miniature to classical music by Fryderyk Chopin, Mazurka in A minor, Op. 17, No. 4, arranged and performed by Arnold Dąbrowski. A sentimental, romantic, and lyrical " journey " through Polish landscapes, like a memory recalled from somewhere beyond the fog. The image is in sepia. This subtle hue of an old photograph is only occasionally interrupted by a sudden burst of color, an intensified lushness of green, or a stronger accent of spot and line. The delicate horizon line evokes a graphic space of colorful checkerboard fields and meadows. We follow a leaf carried by the wind to admire the effect its shadow creates on the water. A sudden gust sends thousands of dandelions high into the air, creating a graphic procession that freezes for a moment, and just as suddenly as it appeared, it disappears. In its place, a butterfly swoops in. It enchants with a play of colors, shapes, and the shapes of its wings.
