The story takes place in the contemporary Polish provinces. Zenon Okrzasa finds a wallet with 10,000 zlotys in the forest, but without bland documents. He takes his discovery to the nearest police station. When information about his glorious deed appears in the local press and television; Zenon Okrzasa is considered by the inhabitants of his town to be a complete idiot and even a dangerous and anti-social individual. More misfortunes begin to fall on his head.

Zygmunt Latawczyc - a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań - is, as he himself says, "a naturalist painter". As such, he cannot paint from television, photos, scans, the Internet - only "exclusively from nature". That is why most of Latawczyc's money is spent on models. An additional circumstance is that Zygmunt - "never dreams of anything". When Zygmunt meets the beautiful model Zuzanna, he quickly comes to the conclusion that he should necessarily paint her with a parrot on his shoulder. The parrot (Ara Ararauna) selected for this purpose costs PLN 6,000.
