A tragicomic story about Michal, an introverted cashier who falls in love with a girl from a nearby flower shop, but his shy nature prevents him from making the first move. The tragicomic nature of Michal's story, in which fate and society constantly throw obstacles in his path, is further enhanced by his eccentric father and Michal's boss. Free Fall shows that being empathetic, kind, and accommodating does not necessarily mean being successful and popular.
