They Call Me Lars is a contemporary thriller centered around an uncompromising private detective mixed with a harsh world of dirt and corruption, yet holding steadfast to the last remnants of morality

The story pays tribute to the American hard-boiled school, unfolding against the setting of present-day Prague. The protagonist, Lars, has a bald skull, a beard, a tattoo under the leather motorcycle jacket, and maneuvers through the city on a motorcycle, skilled in either resolving clients' issues or creating them. It all begins with the acquisition of a compromising video involving property tycoon's wife, a situation that rapidly escalates into the kidnapping of the property tycoon's mistress. The story culminates to a final scene, unraveling the cards and revealing the true identities and moral standings of all involved.Four men tricked by a woman remain handcuffed in an abandoned factory. Which one of them will be the first to break the shackles…?
