The film is a light, funny comedy full of misunderstandings and romantic entanglements. The main plot revolves around a love triangle: Lili, a beautiful girl; Jerzy Piątek, a famous Canadian hockey player; and Dodek Czwartek, a resourceful hairdresser. It all begins when Lili owns a pedigree female dog, and Piątek has a dog of the same breed, for which he wants to find a suitable mate. By a twist of fate, Piątek—smitten with Lili—decides to do everything he can to get closer to her, including proposing a role swap with Czwartek, Lili’s hairdresser. In this situation, full of comic misunderstandings and amusing intrigues, the characters become entangled in increasingly complicated scenarios that seem impossible to resolve. The whole affair, with growing complications, leads to role reversals, clever maneuvers, and actions that ultimately bring about a happy and surprising resolution.
