Her mother (Anna Geislerová) sees the drugs as Anna’s ticket out from behind the Iron Curtain, while Anna knows the doping is harming her body. In a story that follows the impacts of a decision, a young woman is tested by fate.

This explosive comedy, based on the successful play, takes place one evening in a remote village pub during an Ice Hockey World Championship match.
