Comedy of manners with an action twist. Main hero, Janusz Rudnicki, is an inconspicuous proofreader in a local newspaper, a homemade awaiting arrival of a first-born. Because of that, he decides to sell a car and head to Germany, to purchase a station wagon. Stopping in the wrong place and in the wrong time, he gets accidentally involved in a conflict with the auto-theft group. Fighting to survive, he helps to arrest the thieves, gaining gratitude of the police and learning, that he has a potential to do things he had never suspected himself to capable of.
