Thirty-something office drone Tadas is looking for something new. Despite a good career with an insurance company, a pretty wife and a nice new apartment in Vilnius, he craves some excitement. When he runs into an old friend, ne'er-do-well Linas, who has been living a more Bohemian existence since their schooldays, he is introduced to a more adventurous world, including Linas's favorite recreation, "nightriding," driving through Vilnius's underworld, looking for excitement. What follows is a quirky urban road movie, as Tadas and Linas encounter an assortment of odd characters and odder situations. Official Selection, 2009 Karlovy Vary Film Festival.
