What to do when everything comes crashing down? With a Dolce & Gabbana suit and a used Dacia to his name, the career of local star singer Dzidzia is in free fall, and he hasn’t even finished building his new cottage. The money his mum sent from Portugal is running out, with no hope of salvaging his reputation. And it’s not just her he’s indebted to, but also the owner of a wrecked luxury automobile who’s asking for three thousand euros – or else. With his loyal friends, employed as his driver and his bodyguard, Dzidzio embarks on an adventure in pursuit of profit. Smuggling cigarettes to Poland appears to be his only chance, but he needs an investor to make the initial purchase. In 2009 the singer Dzidzio (Mykhaylo Khoma) and his band, Dzidzio kontrabas, hit the scene, quickly rising to fame. Today he sells out entire stadiums in Ukraine. Aside from music videos, members of the group have also made short films, moving unstoppably towards a feature-length triumph. This hilarious road movie through the Ukrainian countryside has won a great many fans.
