Synopsis
After a tumultuous childhood Michael, 22, ends with debts and without permanent residence, stuck between the concrete of the South of Rotterdam and hard labour on the doks of this port town. Michael is under the spell of a new streetsport called Calisthenics, a hard and heavy sport using your own body weight, dreams of traveling: “Getting out, out of this situation with the perseverance that is the key to success”.
