To a great disappointment and sorrow of Vajkay, an archivist by profession, nobody wants to marry his daughter, Pacsirta, a withering and rather unattractive girl. The world closes off around the loving parents and their daughter who is quite an awkward person, in spirit, too. Their days keep passing by in tedious monotony disguised by the family's meek serenity and gentleness. When Pacsirta leaves them for the first time to visit some relatives, the parents suddenly return to their former lifestyle: they start going to restaurants, casinos, and theatre again.
