ABOUT THE MOVIE
All the imperfections of a young democracy hang in the balance like a black cloud over the term of the president of the "Stuka" ("Pike") Fishing Association. The problems are piling up and the solutions are long overdue. How to move forward in such conditions? Maybe reverse is a good direction? We should drink some wine with mineral water and be constructive about this. Oh, democracy, who ever invented you?!
