Many of those whom Gabriel Pasternak met, harmed him. But then as luck would have it, they all found themselves on board the same plane… The waitress recognizes a client in the café as the moneylender who once drove her father to suicide and immediately finds a means to exact revenge – rat poison… A city dandy in a powerful Audi tried to overtake an old Peugeot on a country road, but the provincial driver did not intend to give in and the bloody finale of the senseless rivalry looms ahead… Six funny, crazy, shocking stories form a picture of our life in which it is so easy to drive a person mad.
