Although she only knows his name and that he works “something with coal”, young Irish Molly travels to a small Polish town. She wants to find a man she spent a memorable night with a few months ago. Armed only with a postcard and her perseverance, she is determined to find her loved one, although the hotel owner warned her that all the mines in Poland have long been closed. This drama tells us about how sometimes, in search of what you want, you find what you need.
