SYNOPSIS

Have you ever thought that you have too much boring stuff to do? That you don’t get any time over for having fun?
Meet Mike, a 28 year old suburban slacker, working his ass off at a boring office. One night he comes home from the pub way too late and starts cursing God for stealing his time. Amazingly his prayers are answered and he suddenly gets the time of his life.
But soon things starts to speed up...

This is an absurd comedy thriller. All cut in a fast and dreamlike MTV-style.
