A collective of ideologically motivated mechanics. They steal expensive luxurious cars, to bring them on trial in a court staged at a car workshop. The luxury cars are seen as symbols of decadence and uneven prosperity and must therefore by judgment suffer destruction. One of the Mechanics, a young woman by the name of Sandy has a romantic and secret relationship to Pepo, a talking 10 cylinder white Lamborghini Gallardo. Because of the collectively agreed upon ideal; to hunt down and fight every luxury symbol of the road, Sandy goes against the collective's core philosophy and her political and ideological affiliation is put to the test.

Det Danske Filminstitut registrerer international festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film,
dog primært de titler, som Filminstituttet varetager i sin festivaldistribution,
og primært i forbindelse med de festivaler, som Filminstituttet har prioriteret at samarbejde med.
Registreringen af festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film, der ikke er i festivaldistribution,
foretages kun for "launch"-festivaler ifølge Filminstituttets prioriterede festivalliste. Se listen over prioriterede festivaler.
