Residents of a small village in Masuria talk about rituals, customs, and beliefs connected with death. They talk about it, just as they would talk about anything else, but honestly, volubly, and with a sense of humour. They have accustomed themselves with death, while people living in cities do not have time to even think about it. Thus, they fear its coming. “And what is there to fear?”, wonder the protagonists in the film.
