Fools Gold

It’s 2020. A virus has taken over the world. People are dying in masses. The economy has fallen (or so it seems). Unemployment remains a relevant and widely ignored problem. In this setting, an accident happens in the city of Lodz. They say a blue crystal fell from the sky and killed a homeless man. Miłosz and Tomek, two random guys, find the body and the rock. They ignore the former and take the latter because it looks valuable. That puts them on the police’s radar. The story illustrates the absurdity of this day and age –where anything and everything is possible until we realise that things are not so simple.
