"On the eve of World War II, a young man nicknamed the Pigeon falls in love with a girl fabled for her angelic looks, and builds his way into her heart by transforming her family's modest hut into a beautiful home. But war arrives, cutting short their courtship and sending the young lovers off to the promise of Krakow. Nearly fifty years later, their granddaughter repeats this journey, but instead of the whispered prosperity of the New Poland, she discovers a city caught between its future and its past".
