Synopsis

Three characters at a different age seek love, peace, and success. 50-year old Tadeusz takes part in a speed-dating event, 40-year old Joanna attends a therapy session for people having trouble coping with their emotions and 25-year old Julia listens to a coaching session by her mentor. As they will all learn soon enough – sometimes happiness simply depends on luck. Taking shortcuts will not always lead you where you want to go. The movie is a bitter-sweet story of not so great ways of
pursuing happiness as no matter what kind of plans we make, reality will always find a way to mess with them.
