Two brothers meet again after many years after their father has died. Their father left them a huge collection of postage stamps, which are of great value. However, at first the brothers do not know this and want to get rid of it. When they find out, they realize they didn't know their father well at all. Now that they feel closer to him, they no longer want to sell the collection, their father's life's work, but rather keep it and complete the collection. In doing so, they constantly come across fraudsters and fake colleagues from their father trying to get to the collection. When the brothers find out that a very valuable postage stamp is still missing, one of the brothers gives up his kidney to exchange it for the stamp in a detour. However, during the operation, someone breaks into her apartment and steals the stamp collection.

criticism

“The simple fable of false desire and false greed surprises with its comedic ease. Although this episode is less complex than others, it is particularly impressive because of its acting skills. "
