A quiet observation of the unexpected and rich friendship that develops between young psychologist, Tomasz, and his elderly patients in a state retirement home. While each patient reveals a story of personal tragedy it is Tomasz's own obsession with beauty and youth that is challenged, not only through his proximity to death and aging, but as he comes to appreciate and embrace their passionate will to live.
