30歲的維特在西里西亞的建築設計公司工作，杀人步某日接到家裡的來信，杀人步敦促他回鄉探望生病的父親。維特的故鄉是在華沙附近的小城鎮，當他抵達時才知道父親只是藉口患病希望他回來承擔家庭責任。但維特討厭他們的生活方式，他的父親是個酒鬼，他的妹妹貝拉是個花癡，他的姑媽髒亂而揮霍，維特要到外地工作來滿足他們的花費。雖然距前作《水晶的結構》只有兩年，但波蘭的政局已起了變化。華迪洛．哥穆爾卡已經下台，愛德華．蓋萊克成為共黨第一書記。蓋萊克提出努力提高生活水平的政策，但是未獲得波蘭人的信任。影片主題是逃避。維特擺脫家人到另一個城市就業；母親早就逃到國外；父親酗酒；妹妹透過性行為。贊祿西不是一個悲觀主義者，他通過電影建議我們應該努力改善我們的生活和工作，而不是後退，或沉迷於不能實現的幻想。

回复 :Adult brothers Mark and Colin Pollock still live with their parents Frank and Mavis Pollock in a small apartment in the projects of London's east end in what is a collective depressed and unhappy existence. The three men of the household are all on the dole, each doing little to find gainful employment. Between the brothers, Mark is the smart aleck, who calls his parents by their given names to irk them, and who hangs out with a bunch of hooligans as he refers to himself and his friends, such as a skinhead named Coxy. Although never medically diagnosed as such, Colin is seemingly emotionally slow. Colin likes to hang out with Mark and his friends in his want to be accepted, especially as Mark tells him that a neighborhood girl named Hayley is interested him. The family rarely socializes with Mavis' sister and brother-in-law, Barbara and John, who live a middle to upper middle class and seemingly perfect existence in the suburbs of Chigwell. Although not telling them to their face, John dislikes his relations by marriage, believing especially Mark to be brash and trashy. A unilateral act by Barbara leads to many issues within the extended family coming to the surface, most specifically the true happiness of the marriage between Barbara and John, and what Colin is truly looking for to be happy in life.
