Synopsis

Three men longing to become heroes. During the 80s, they decided to fight the communistic regime in Czechoslovakia. Three stories about the thin line between defence and offence, courage and chance, presence and past… fantasy and reality. Explosions, gunfire, terroristic drill. And behind all that there is the desire for love.
