Two women, Kasia and Asia, live and work together ; their livelihood consists of emptying the apartments of people who have passed away, sometimes reselling what they find, which results in some tragi-comic situations. Piotr, meanwhile, is bored stiff working a job screwing lids on jars at a factory. The three cross paths, and Piotr begins to fall for Asia. Kasia is also in love with Asia, but Asia, we discover, cannot stand being touched. Despite the obvious absurdity of the situation, a friendship grows and the trio somehow manages to find a balance and deal with their conundrum with a dark sense of humour, building up to the exceedingly sensual climax of the story.
