Synopsis

 

This movie is a look at the Czech hip-hop scene, which has grown considerably in the last decade and has become a home for many young people. Hip-hop is far more than just a musical style - for many, it is literally a way of life. It carries with it certain values, an inexhaustible number of gestures, rituals and symbols, as well as an original, ever changing language of its own. And that is given special attention in the film; in fact, it is the starting point for the movie itself, where we trace rap texts and let the words of "street poets" come alive in offbeat situations.
