Four tired women who don't know each other meet by chance at a spa. Here, the film's characters get into strange and somewhat comical situations that help them understand what is wrong in their lives. There is also a fifth weary character here, which is the spa itself, trying to be the perfect place to relax, but failing.

A woman returns to old Vilnius in search of her grandmother’s house, only to find a city rapidly erasing the past in favor of the future.

After a painful divorce, Roland struggles to live alone and express what he feels. Repairing washing machines becomes his unexpected form of therapy. Running from loneliness and longing for tenderness, he joins a dance class and slowly discovers tantra - but festivals and practices offer only a brief illusion of love. To truly heal, he must face the place where his complicated relationship with emotions began: his childhood and his mother. What does it take to repair a man?

In the last 7 years I lived in 5 countries, in 7 cities and in 16 homes. Now I only have three days to pack my things. It‘s my sixteenth home, sixteenth room from which I‘ll move myself out. I am packing things and through my window I see another 215 windows. Through these windows I see immigrants, couples, misfortunes. Some read, some play, some sleep, some learn to walk on the balance beam, they come in, they go out. I am filming so I wouldn‘t forget about them.
