Trash story

Mati, from a small Silesian town, wants to get beyond saying 'I' and break the forms of storytelling open. So objects, rubbish, cartoon characters and film conventions take over: a toaster talks about growing up, a dirty fold in the bedsheet about love, a paranoid detective investigates a primary-school essay contest about Katyń. The perspective keeps changing.
