Synopsis
Young Mikes lives near the Prague intersection at Andil in a building populated with people in similar dire straits. At present he is trying to break free of his former lifestyle. To this end he hooks up with a nice neighbour named Jana who may represent for him a way into the world of normal people. But his friend Lukas and girlfriend Kaja drag him back to drugs and theft. On a trip to South Africa, he and Kaja succeed in making a new drug. When he returns home everyone forces the resistant Mikes to try and recreate the lucky experiment once more. The drug made by mixing certain ingredients with the couple's love, pain and envy, of course brings happiness to no one. In the end, however, Mikes gets one more chance at life, though there is no guarantee that he'll be able to take advantage of it.
