Synopse
Victor lives with a woman he doesn't love and has a child that wasn't planned. When his father suddenly turns up after years away – fresh out of jail and seriously ill – Viktor finally sees the chance of leaving his unloved family. The plan is to take the old man to a far-off nursing home and then take over his flat. But the journey turns into a bizarre road trip as the father starts feeling a lot better than his son would like. A wild road movie, rich in twists and quirky characters.
