A Polish hairdresser's marriage to a French model ends dismally in Paris. Upon returning to his native land, he rises to financial wealth after some shady dealings, arranges his own fake funeral, and lures his bride to Poland, where it turns out her monetary gain is much less than expected. Humiliated as she once humiliated her husband, she returns to her native land. Meanwhile, the husband has bought a new identity in a capitalism-obsessed Poland where any such purchase is possible.
