Three Czechs in a rickshaw race through India& Adrenaline-inducing, crazy, breathtaking, deadly - thus can the race on ridiculous carts across the colorful and unpredictable India be described. In a country where everybody takes their lives on the road into their own hands and getting on the road requires a lot of courage, the "tuk-tuk" race is a truly insane idea. And when you put three men from the heart of a civilized Europe, who only know about India curry and the Kama Sutra, it's a series of unfortunate events.
