A director pays a visit to Mr Krzysio, who owns a very unique second hand bookshop, located in one of the garages in the Warsaw district of Żoliborz. Mr Krzyś is a legendary figure and has a group of loyal customers ― he runs his place, according to a certain set of unchanging rules. Just like a doctor, Mr Krzyś seems to understand what ails his customers and what they need.
