Single radicals

tragicomedy

4 caracters (2 men, 2 women)

Four young inhabitants of the Eastern Slovakian city of Prešov. One night in the music club, the disclosure of the hidden passions. A tragic comedy about a generation of young people which just finished their university study and wish to settle down.
About people that still dream about their ideal partner trying to find what to to with the rest of your life.
Egoism, split between the East and the West of Slovakia and much more.
Those “single radical” are without any ideals and they are incapable to build any relations.
