Mushrooms. I have no time
The film is a tragic story of a rural woman who, until the first frost in the woods, is trying to pick all the remaining mushrooms. She is running out of time and obsession with the inability to manage it gradually destroys the woman. Imperceptible from beginning, but over time already visible, just like mushrooms, the inability grows and takes over the main character.
