When cousins Gonga and Bart find a suitcase full of rusted crosses in a scrap yard, Bart has the saving grace of making neon crucifixes and selling them to the pious residents of Tbilisi.

Surreal and full of eccentric characters, the road movie won the "Golden Leopard" award in the Cineasti Del Presente program at the Locarno festival.
