About the film

Thomas and Mario are friends for life. Mario is fiercely ambitious and combative young man, with a loud mouth, and big theatrical plans for an exciting future, great in every way. When his political career is about to get under steam, he is suddenly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. At first he tries to take it all with courage under sense of humor that is his. But pretty soon he finds out the aggressive nature of his disease. Very early on he is clearly on one thing: he plans to go on as long as his body will carry him. And for as long as it‘s fun. Confronted with a prospect of very slowly decaying body, and even worse a faltering mind, Mario starts his quest to try and get euthanasia out of a penal system.
