23–year-old Valentin is an ordinary dreamer. He works at a supermarket, rents a bed in a communal housing apartment with migrant workers, and dreams of becoming a professional musician. Unfortunately, nobody takes his ambitions seriously; neither his relatives, nor his best friend, nor his flatmates. However, our protagonist isn’t easily deterred! He owns an old Yamaha and he’s certain it’ll lead him to his dream.
