Filip dreams of writer’s glory and luxurious lifestyle in a more prosperous part of town. One day he gets a knock on the door. His neighbour Tereza, an older prostitute that Filip tries to avoid by all means, asks him to write a letter for her fiancé. Filip agrees and by doing so, he gets involved in a mad game between reality and fiction. Based on the short story Her Lover by Maksim Gorky
