The story follows Adam Krajňák, the father of a family and the head of organised crime at the Slovak-Ukrainian border. His oldest daughter is about to marry a local thief, his Ukrainian partner begins to rebel and a new product – narcotics – appears on the border. Alexander Bárta, Emília Vášáryová, Eugen Libezňuk play the main characters.

"We are exploring not only the physical borders but also the moral ones, and the transformation of people who cross them. Our tagline is: There are borders you cross only once", producer Wanda Adamík Hrycová told FNE.

The line is produced by Wandal Production in coproduction with the Slovak public broadcaster RTVS and the Ukrainian company Garnet International Media Group, with a planned budget of 1.31 m EUR.  "We are open to further coproduction discussions. We have received development support from Creative Europe MEDIA and the Slovak Audiovisual Fund, and also a production subsidy from the Slovak Audiovisual Fund and the Ukrainian State Film Agency", said Hrycová.

The film is currently shooting in more than 35 locations throughout 35 shooting days. Shooting took place in Eastern Slovakia and Western Ukraine in August-September 2016 and is currently taking place in Western Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
