Instead of ten commandments, ten intertwined Tinder dates: virtual relationships, bleak joys, fast-paced moves, spiritual deviance, hypocritical hypocrisy, perverse homophobia, lustful bloody revenge, and in the background a surprising twist that is far from being about joys... This boundary-pushing independent film is not a traditional romantic story, but an experimental, provocative look at the 2020s, where the search for happiness is often just a swipe right away, yet it seems unattainable.

Throughout history, Hungary's waters have changed almost beyond recognition. Our swamplands have been replaced by reservoirs and fish ponds, and our largest floodplain is now an arid lowland wilderness. Today, 75% of our lakes are artificial and 90% of our floodplains are gone. But wildlife has had to adapt to this changing world or face extinction. Surprisingly, our artificial lakes provide the last refuge for some rare aquatic ecosystems and our former floodplains provide temporary shelter for hundreds of thousands of migrating birds during the winter. But this world is no longer governed by nature, but by man. In this new nature documentary from the creators of the highly successful Where Rivers Run Wild: Aqua Hungarica, the man-made aquatic world is revealed in stunning new images. From the crane migration in the Hortobágy National Park to the hidden labyrinths of Lake Tisza, the winter marshes of the Hungarian Great Plains and the jellyfish hovering in crystal clear mine lakes.
