Marek (14 years old) is a young boy shaved to zero who lives in fables of rebel hooliganism, typical for young boys like him, and likes to presume for his sexual achievements. Hedus, on his side, is a fat boy highly gullible who adores and envies Marek while he has his own dreams, like entering in the Foreign Legion, an elite group of the army. The two boy believe they are friends forever, and decide to steal a filthy Audio with the purpose of travelling all around the world. However, a sudden rapture make them pick a hitch-hiking. She is a young, beautiful girl, and with her now the group is three people. ¿Will that alteration be enough to break the boys or their friendship will be more powerful?

- VarietyJessica Kiang
The cinematographer Luká? Milota frames the action impeccably (...) The technical department is well managed (...) but the interpretations are what really clicks with you.
Read - Roger EbertMatt Fagerholm
The talent of Omerzu to bring authentic performances and the texture of novice actors has never been more evident than in the case of Toma?s? Mrvi?k.
Read - The Hollywood ReporterBoyd van Hoeij
A very smart and accurate movie about some boys in their teen age, but it is naughty and carefree when needed (...) And adorable movie which is as comfortable as an old sweater and almost as warm.
