5 people, an empty bar. What begins as wild fun quickly turns into limitlessness, into excess and rampant addiction. From the beginning we are hooked, because the film is a single movement: up and down, into deep abysses and into the head. The bar becomes a place of longing and at the same time a prison for the characters performing. A perfect day becomes a perfect night.
