FILM INFO

A dull man brings a horrible package to his friend, a "poet" but primarily a boiler room worker. The hospital worker Offa makes sure that young mothers do not abandon their children, because she was once such a child herself. An old man in a wheelchair sits surrounded by cats and a little girl. He gives her a long, meaningless lecture, having no idea what surprise his companion is preparing for him.
