The story of Marta, a middle-aged woman married to a small town doctor. Marta searches for happiness in the arms of a much younger man, Boguś. Their relationship is as innocent and fresh as the smell of the sweet rush that grows in the river where Marta and Boguś swam on their first date.
Their innocent “dates” at the shores of the river, marked by mutual fascination, are put to an end by a sudden and cruel twist of fate: it is Boguś who dies first, drowning, entangled in the roots of the sweet rush he was carrying for Marta.
