Plots(1)

Time in one of Slovakia' most guarded prisons, where most of the prisoners come back regularly, passes very slowly. Two recidivists evaluate their past and look into the future when the time of their release approaches. How does the whole process look like and what is waiting for Zlatko and Miro outside of the jail after many years? Once out, they are empty-handed, no education, with criminal record. Complicated family background and no friends giving them the right example and chance to integrate into normal life. Baffled, they observe what's new outside, women, cars, fashion, smartphones – all of it has changed, but they remain the same. Will they be able to start from the scratch and is it safe for the society? How much can handle a mother of a jailbird? Is the juridical system fair enough? The story of a repeat criminals'reintegration trapped in a vicious circle. (official distributor synopsis)
