Only until dawn

Roma is a woman with character. She looks for positives even in the most hopeless situation. After many years of relationship, she decides to leave her husband. She doesn't complain and
walks with her head held high, although she has to live in a caravan. She is sure that she did the right thing. The dream of her own apartment gives her hope in everyday life. In difficult
times, she visits beautiful houses for sale and tries to cheer herself up by eating ice-cream. After months of waiting, Roma is called to the office. She is sure that this is the moment when she will get a council flat and start a new life. However, the dream of her own home recedes once again. With nothing to lose, she decides to go to the club to forget her worries
for at least one night. Then, Aniela appears on her way. Women immediately find a common language. It turns out that each of them has a wealth of experience that they try to cope with.
Women spend an extraordinary night together and give each other what they miss most. Roma can experience hearth and home, and Aniela can feel the closeness of another human being for a brief moment.
