gray sky with clouds. Camera falls from the clouds in the running Vlad. it just runs down the street, trains.

this is the first scene, the essence of the film is as follows:
a person who was a regular hooligan and did not think about anything in life.
Then he met a man who showed him the way. Parkour. way to freedom.
the Parkour has complex philosophy and it turns out that Vlad can understand it only going edge of consciousness.
film is divided into several parts that are mixed throughout the film.
Vlad has a story - the story of hooligan which begun to reflext to his life.
he saw tracers, met with them and started working, in parallel trying to live in his old environment.
This environment rejected him and he became an outcast among his pals.
they forced him to show them what he can do, he tried to make the dangerous element of Parkour that is not able to do well and broke his spine.
It is defined only by the end of the film.
throughout the film there are a number of stories: one - is the story of Vlad in the real world where he is studying in a vocational school and walking with hooligans and trains.
second story (this is a school with children, room Vlad, his talk of philosophy with Fly - a Parkour Teacher) - is his inner world which is shown before and after the injury (in scene cut, but the plot is all happening after injury)
History in the inside world of Vlad - figurative, symbolic representation of his life.
this story is a strange and incomprehensible at first glance, very surreal, but the characters make it clear what they mean.
This brief history is as follows:

Vlad comes to school.
it is a symbol of his childhood. there he meets confusion and loneliness.
home is the same, only the voices of the parents at the door, out of which came the clear that - whether the abuse, or TV shows with the same content ...
When Vlad does get tight at the school, where children do not give him a chance to survive, there are Eugene and Sasha - the same hooligans who were with him.
but in his inner world, they like a guardian angel who explains to him that he is now with them and they will help him.
in fake.



Eugene and Sasha enter into his confidence and try to keep him in school. it likes so.
is not clear what is going on in school - the children sleep in the gym, do not know when to come out of there.
Teachers act as cowardly children
some little girl friends with Vlad and she with him, other kids dont touch him.
She shows him the hole in the fence through which to escape.
he runs in "outer world" and sees the silhouette - it's Roma. he is mute.
the only people in the outside world, but he is deaf and mute.
he teaches Vlad how to make Parkour.
in home Vlad hears swearing and it becomes clear that it is not on TV,
when a pieces of broken plate flies under the door.
Vlad takes this fragment and bring it to school. change it to the knife.
then walk to the outside world Vlad become regular.
but Eugene and Sasha watch Vlad and stole phone from Roma, and he disappears from the life of Vlad forever.
Vlad begins to run very fast and very tired.
One day he meets a Fly - his Parkour teacher.

Vlad runs trains.
gradually see that someone running after him.
He does not turn around.
Vlad: Who are you?
Fly: you breathe properly. inhale more than you can exhale. you going?
Vlad: I do not know, I just train. to health.
fly: as a recovering?
Vlad: Yes I'm all right ...
gradually at a loss stops, goes to step. nobody near.

gradually they learn, Fly tells to Vlad a philosophy of parkour.
that specially build fences to bring into our consciousness paradigm "paths from which to choose" instead of freedom.
and tracers are people who learn to overcome these barriers in thehead.
this is their way through it, and they overcome all obstacles in life, learn to overcome obstacles in principle.
Fly explains to Vlad that from childhood we drive past the fence until we are small and we do not realize it,
Instead of going right, we are accustomed to think in patterns "choice of what we offer."
he trains with Vlad and teaches him to overcome obstacles.
Vlad begins to feel the philosophy of freedom and comes to his home from the street.
everything is broken, he finds the plate and it sticks together. lacking only one piece.
he goes to Eugene and to Sasha and threatening them with a knife, takes a piece of the plate.

Vlad then becomes stronger and learns to confront children in school,
selects a piece of them back, it appears that this is Eugene and Sasha persuaded children to hurt Vlad that he did not leave the school.
the girl dont shows him a way out immediately.


girl only sees his back scarred.
it scars that leave a mark only in the soul ... but they are the most painful.
She takes him to the porch where the barrier and the fog and rain.
says that it can let go but there's nothing there.
at the end Eugene and Sasha go out after Vlad in the real world, again trying to shoot someone, but Vlad goes away from them.
He comes to the school and see that everything is falling apart, children are frightened, hiding away from him, there is no Eugene and Sasha.
girl wants him to stay, but he could not stay.
there is a frame where when Vlad goes to school and she let that little girl standing in the corridor farther in white glow.

in a parallel conflict between Vlad and Eugene & Sasha in real life is shown, which brings him to a trick with an injury.
The film ends with the fact that Vlad is sitting alone in the school for a while.
then goes through the main entrance where the barrier and is first on the road, then out of the city and is just across the fields.

a film about a person sometimes can not understand what was happening to him at the cost of his life.
before his death, before leaving, to realize that what happened to him.
cure imperfections to die without a load hurt himself for his lack of understanding of the transparency of the sky.
Vlad is the fate - to reflect and discover some strange philosophy fences ...
everything that happens in a strange school - this is the memory of his past life and find yourself.
a finding which was not possible in the real world because there is a lot of skins ...
unnecessary relationships, vanity, the simulation of love and friendship, misunderstanding and blindness of others ...
in such a world is only one solution - aggression.
but before the death of the man who stood on the path of enlightenment is given a chance to know yourself.
heaven is to die for it
