Description
In a country beleaguered by corruption and crime, where short cuts and quick fixes are the norm, a man goes after his dream thinking it will be easy, but learns that there are no shortcuts to finding real reward. Just like there are no short-cuts to making a slow brewed, extra matured beer.
N.B. This film aired with original language, followed by a delayed English voiceover.
Execution
Licensed track: One Day/Reckoning Song (Wankelmut Remix) Radio Edit.
