A romantic vacation goes awry when a volcanic eruption strands Bethany and her boyfriend, Rob, in Warsaw, Poland. Taking the explosive event as a sign to ditch her baggage, Bethany reunites with her childhood friend, Nel, to traipse through lofts, clubs, and back alleys—all while becoming entangled in an emotional web that challenges her sense of self.

Stifled Ania, trapped in a grimy grocery store, is suffocating under her mother’s toxic control. Salvation arrives via a discarded cauliflower that, unsettlingly, starts talking. At first a witty mentor, the vegetable’s advice soon sours into a grotesque push for revenge. As her rebellion escalates from petty pranks to radical acts, Ania must decide: is this edible oracle her savior or a deranged voice of self destruction? A darkly comic journey where freedom tastes like rot.

Four friends on the threshold of adulthood spend the summer day together in the absence of their parents. Ordinary at first glance, with time, it begins to lose its seemingly carefree. It turns out to be a joint attempt to say something that everyone senses, but that nobody wants to talk about openly.
