     A jobless musician, long retired but with lingering fame is deceived by friends and is left fighting with the absurdities of destiny on his own in a neverending struggle for survival. The film is a satire of our modern society bearing the defects of deformed social relations and degraded moral values.

     A popular story told with the means of comedy narration. It reveals much of the life we all lead. The obstacles in the characters' lives are the same as those of every Bulgarian in the past fifteen years - working illegally abroad, grasping a chance for fast money, being faced with the danger to lose your only home, fighting banks and institutions to gain your apartment back, working in suspicious clubs owned and managed by mafia structures. We witness an almost complete breakdown of families but it is presented with good-hearted humor and optimism, while the sad moments step aback at least for a little while.
