The short and tragic life of Silesian poet Rafal Wojaczek, who used to live the way he wrote and to write the way he lived. He constantly rebelled against the dull 1960s reality by causing scandals, drinking heavily, getting naked in public and leaving restaurants through the window. His legendary poems and suicidal death at the age of 27 made him a literary icon of the doomed generation.

Based on his own novel Metaphysics, Lech Majewski crafts intimate passion plays and creates "a luminous, highly erotic treatise on art, love and death" (CHICAGO READER). When a terminally-ill art historian meets an engineer, it is love and lust at first sight. But their love is threatened by her looming illness. With her remaining days on earth numbered, she chooses to fan the flames of her obsession by taking her lover on a trip to Venice, where the artist's work becomes the background for their physical passion and emotional discovery.
