Atbai is a street thug who is nursing a broken heart. He signs up to a MMA tournament, determined to beat the reigning champion. But the hardened street fighter also sees his participation as a chance to win back his girlfriend, no matter what it takes. Adilkhan Yerzhanov, whose film Constructors was selected for FIFF 2014, confirms his exceptional talent with his tightly shot eighth feature.

This feature film is available on the website cinefile.ch (up until 30th April 2020).
