A university professor leads a lonely and sad life as a retiree. He often goes for walks in the cemetery. One day, he meets Ania there, the daughter of his friend Andrzej, who died tragically in the mountains. The girl lives with her children in a student dormitory, living a very modest life. Her husband left a few years ago to work abroad. Ania stayed in the country to finish her studies. Meeting the girl radically changes the professor's barren existence. Despite his advanced age and lack of experience, he takes on the care of the children to enable Ania to go to England for a management course.
