Adam wants to have it all, a square dose of adrenalin that boosts his testosterone as well as an easy life in a tuneful marriage with a loving wife and children. But life is simple. No one has it all.

Adam and Iva are together for over 15 years, married, with 2 girls. Everything in their lives would have been just ordinary if Adam wasn’t craving to satisfy his thirst for testosterone so often. Over the course of their marriage, Iva has learned to swim in this pool of aimless risks and macho gestures. She forgives him everything. Even a nasty accident, that costs him one leg, even crazy winter motorbike rally in Norway where he has yet another almost deadly accident. After a couple of months, he ends up in a rehabilitation facility where Iva works as a nurse. Unable to move, Adam starts to fall in love with Iva again, whereas Iva feels that her inner change is inevitable. With her newly gained freedom, she decides not to take any more chances.
