June 1999. Bogdan has to buy alcohol for his wife’s 50th birthday but the timing couldn’t be worse – the Pope’s visit brings about a city-wide prohibition. A simple shopping jaunt quickly turns into a metaphysical odyssey filled with with absurd events, curious meetings, and bizarre obstacles. With every step, it becomes less clear whether what he is searching for is still vodka or something much more profound.
