Before Google, Yahoo and even Apple, before the Silicon Valley cliché of informal dress code, skateboards running the corridors and wild creativity became commonplace, one company embodied the digital economy lifestyle and business style: the one firm coming out of the Age of Aquarius was Atari. The story of Atari is two-thirds the story of Nolan Bushnell, founder and visionary, and one-third the first and probably biggest boom and bust of the new economy some 20 years before the new economy even existed. Atari was showing that technology is cool, way before the personal computer revolution took place and they were reaching out to an ever-growing audience with something that is still cool today: video games. Atari literally introduced the digital world to the mass consciousness.

"Luxus" was one of the most eccentric art groups of the decline of communist Poland. Its contestation character grew out of rebellion against the all-encompassing gray. The group's uniqueness lay in the fact that, as they themselves said, "We are independent because we don't care." Even today its members give expression to their distinctiveness, growing out of the spirit of punk rock. In Agnieszka Mazanek's film, the former students of the Wroclaw PWSSP recall the artistic and social excesses of years ago, but also show the activities of "Luxus" against the backdrop of social and economic changes. Even today their critical and still equally witty view of the world touches on the paradoxes of modern times.
