This film is adapted from the Giorgia Morselli's La Bici, a story about four characters with no sense of balance. There are a rich Israeli with no immigration permit, a professional cyclist, a young Hungarian woman, and a trainer who is trying to save the cyclist from doing something illegal. The characters share a series of falls. Their bicycles become a metaphor of life and of their inability to find an equilibrium.
