Agnieszka Józefowska

Maintained in the convention of a daydream, or rather a psychedelic vision, an impression on the works of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz. Individual sequences of the film depict fragments of Witkacy's works, and the whole seems to be a commentary on the sentence: "I remember that night, when boundless terror took over the innermost fibers of my brain, and all I could hear was that terrible babble in the gaping maw of the unknown, that something blind, turning its blade toward itself."

In a country house at the turn of a century live a family of eccentrics. Anastasia, the beautiful mistress of the manor, enjoys the amorous attentions of her stepson Blarney so openly that her husband Diapanasius takes out his shotgun and shoots her. The rest of the family accepts her end as a matter-of-fact, and soon - her return as a voyeuristic ghost who interferes with their love lifes. Anastasia has a posthumous son Tadeusz, "born" by clambering out of the tree trunk. Anastasia seduces him too, and drives another men so crazy that they kill her another couple of times. Finally, Tadeusz, the arch-rebel, leads a mob on a raid of the old manor.
