A lyrical comedy; an escape to nature for a civil servant tired of everyday life and the monotony of life becomes an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of existence; it helps to regain mental balance. Henry, an exemplary husband and civil servant, returns to the places of his childhood, wants to find the treasure buried decades ago by Tereska, who fell in love with him. Along the way, he picks up two boys and two girls, who begin to compete for him. One of the boys assaults him when Henry digs up a bottle containing, it turns out, Tereska's love letter. The youngsters notify Henryk's wife of his whereabouts.
