Fentanyl, the most popular street drug in Vilnius, is merciless to anyone who tries it. A film director attempts a noble mission. He discovers a group of drug addicts roaming the streets and begins to visit them consistently, with a vision to save at least one of them, even though they all have HIV, hepatitis and other diseases.
