Synopse
A claustrophobic, darkly funny Czech psychothriller about the decline of a relationship After a long break due to injury, pro cyclist Roman has to get back in form, which means a lot of tough training and a rigorous diet. To achieve the desired results more quickly, he even installs an oxygen tent in the bedroom – much to the displeasure of his wife Sarlota, who would like nothing more than to start a family. Fiercely determined, they exert themselves to the physical maximum to achieve their different goals. But every obsession has a price – and thus every additional night in the oxygen tent threatens to suffocate Roman and Sarlota's relationship.
