About

Mischievously self-assured Mára and somewhat eccentric Heduš set out into the frozen wastes in search of adventure – by car, naturally. After all, Mára’s turning fifteen soon. A road movie about the flies that occasionally buzz around even in winter, and a story – before it ends at the police station – that tells of the elusive bond of boyhood friendship and the irrepressible desire to experience something, even if you don't exactly know what.

The film premiered in the Main Competition 53. KVIFF and won its creator Olmo Omerz the directing award. The Slovenian-born, Czech-based director also won the Czech Film Critics' Prize. The film went on to dominate the 2018 Czech Lions Awards with six statuettes.
