Among the penguins living on a rocky island there was one who went on his own ways. He dreamed of rising into the air. After one of the unsuccessful attempts, he dropped into the water and caught a gold fish that turned him into a balloon for his wishes. Fascinated by the plane, he asked the fish to become a great machine. He flew around the world. He introduced confusion on air routes and disrupted the work of radars. Tired he returned to the island and fell like a dead man. After waking up, he happily joined the other penguins.

Warsaw at night. Two young people, Eve and Chicor, are walking through the city after a wild party. Both have had something to drink.

A few minutes pass drinking wine and increasingly frivolous flirting. Everything seems to be moving towards a rapprochement. But this night will not end with easy, non-committal sex. Both parties are hiding under different masks. Eve is amused, seems confident and consistent in her ambiguous game with her boyfriend.
