The central character of Father's Day is Marcel, a punk rock musician. Although he’s already passed the forty-year mark, he still hasn’t settled down. Following the slogan ‘no future’, he lives from concert to concert and from party to party. Then, one evening, he meets Basia, an old friend. The idea is that she’ll be just another one-night stand. But in the end, she steers his life onto a whole new course.
