Woytila's mysterious bag lures gangsters, amateur philosophers, car lovers and fast food stall workers on an increasingly surreal adventure. The search for the object of their desire leads the protagonists to Krakow, where various drunken states climax in mix-ups, break-downs and melodramatic flirting. Soon they are flying through the Polish night, seeing dogs, pigs and swordfish, and they really begin to wonder when they hear the conductor say, “Next stop, Drogomysel!”
