Krzysztof, a leading actor in a provincial theater troupe, locks horns with the director of a politically charged play. At home, he faces a crumbling marriage as his puppeteer wife, Anka, grows impatient with his ego and need to become a star. For her first feature as sole director, Holland (Europa Europa) convincingly and humorously depicts the pressures felt by artists living under a communist regime.
