In a city full of "manele", drugs and illegal car races you don't survive unless you know how to pay. Sometimes with other's lives. Young people today are trying to adapt to a world without consciousness, a world of money, unscrupulous businesses. A film-adrenaline with accents of black humor, irony at the society which is run by large rubble and where life is just a currency.
