Description
They tempt death to truly live.
There are five of them, but in reality, many more. They were born into safety and prosperity, yet something is always missing. Outwardly, each of them is a valid member of society. They go to work, spin the wheels of capitalism, weave the threads of partnerships. Inside, however, they are outcasts for whom life is far too easy and the stakes are insignificantly low. They can do anything – and that is their curse.
In a time devoid of real worries, they want to experience something real. Something powerful. And so they drink recklessly and take risks, because even a bad emotion is better than feeling nothing at all. Facing fear and looking death in the eye – that is their recipe for life. Fights, climbing cranes, jumping onto trains, intense chases with the police through the streets of Prague…
In another time, perhaps heroes; in a time of peace and prosperity, outcasts. They live fast – and that can only end one way. Or can it?
