The very first scene bodes ill – white powder trades owners for cash. And when we see Victor getting the first flashes, in car beside his beautiful girlfriend Iveta, we start to feel anxious for the couple.

The Baltic metropolis Riga through the eyes of a smalltime drug dealer. For Victor, a job much like any other: get hold of the goods, divide it up into smaller portions, sell it to customers. But pacts with the devil are notoriously unpredictable. As Victor’s grip on the situation loosens by the day, the world around him grows darker...
