Slovak version , 90 min

The main protagonist Maťo (Michal Nemtuda) lives a carefree life with no rules. He and his childhood friend Tomáš (Jakub Gogál) steal cars for a car repair shop. Maťo's life changes radically when he meets and falls in love with Veronika (Kristína Svarinská). Veronika lives the respectable life of a university student. She grew up in an orphanage and lives in a boarding house paid for by her school. She is constantly trying to contact her mother, whom she has never seen. Maťo doesn't tell her the whole truth about himself, and would like to change his life because of her. The first conflicts appear between Maťo and Tomáš. Maťo wants to break free from his current way of living, so he and Tomáš agree to one last score. They go to rob a gas station, but because of an unfortunate accident, Maťo becomes an accessory to murder.
