At one of the group's many parties, Lilla, the daughter of the school history teacher, behaves a little too indecently. More than a little tipsy, she competes for Gergö's attentions and indeed, at the point where she is barely still able to walk, they end up in bed together. Needless to say, this provides the material for the clique's latest video. The following day the footage is online and Lilla has vanished. Subsequently, Gergö, the first to fall under suspicion, risks losing more than just his school leaving certificate. Together with his friends he proceeds to search the bars of Budapest, with not only the pressure of his own conscience, but also a sense of anxiety within the group growing in the process; what are they to do should the question of guilt arise? Stick together and keep silent, or ask for forgiveness?

Goldie is a star – well, not quite yet, but at least in the eyes of her little sisters Sherrie and Supreme she is. The rest of the world is bound to take note soon too. Her big break surely awaits, she’s just got to pick up that golden fur coat she’s had her eye on first. And land a role as a dancer in a hip-hop video. And keep child welfare services from separating her from Sherrie and Supreme, after their mother is locked up. Holding onto those dreams isn’t easy.
