May, at the end of the world. Two women arrive, leaving their old lives behind, but find no idyll. Róża is ill, and her husband slowly dismantles the order he spent his life building to save her. Maja faces a change that is hard to accept. Neither can, or wants to, stop a disaster that slowly spreads through the village, as the living resist death.
