Three men longing to become heroes. During 1980s, they decided to fight the communist regime in Czechoslovakia. Three stories about the thin line between defence and offence, courage and chance, present and past... fantasy and reality. Explosions, gunfire, terroristic drill. And behind all that there is the desire for love.
