The turnings of this satirical story are accentuated by the comments of the Director and the Author. Éva is in love with Zoli. She expects to live a wild and modern life by his side, not the boredom of a petite-bourgeois household. On a drunken morning, Zoli writes a poem. The poem is published in a morning paper and divides readers. Because of the poem the young man is dismissed it from his work, and his landlord kicks him out from the apartment. Even Éva is chased away by her parents as a result of the poem. They hang around with their friend, Laci, finding occasional shelters here and there. Éva likes this kind of worldly life. Modern poets give shelter to the couple. After a scene of jealousy, a breach and an accident, however, the Director makes Zoli realise that he needs to turn over a new leaf. Éva and Zoli start a new life, as if they would not even remember their life before. They get an apartment and Éva is expecting a baby. In his mind's eye, Zoli sees their boring, petite-bourgeois future, and attempts to commit suicide as well as kill Éva and the film. The Director and the Author have to suffer, and the lovers find themselves overwhelmed with happiness. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
