Ma pokazać, w jaki sposób kłamstwo i manipulacja może stanąć w szranki z uczciwością, prostolinijnością i naiwnością. I – kto kogo "przechytrzy", kto wygra ten pojedynek, w którym stawką jest miłość… A co robi w naszej historii kaktus? Cóż, dziewczyna, która kocha kaktusy i mówi do nich po imieniu to chyba jedyna osoba, która potrafi w kłamcy i cyniku dostrzec coś dobrego i zmienić go… A wtedy – nawet kolczasty kaktus potrafi zakwitnąć pięknym kwiatem.

The film is a rather straightforward and faithful adaptation of a novel by Maria Dabrowska with the same title. The plot is woven around the changing fortunes of a noble (upper-class) Niechcic family in the pre-WWI Poland. There are two main crossing threads: a social history one and an existential one.
