Plot

edit

Danil, 15, has a dream: to become a famous pranker. He cooperates with his friend Kostya (who doubles as a cameraman) to make videos and post them on social media; their 'success' leaves much to be desired. However, one prank clip suddenly goes viral. Inspired, Danil decides now is the time to act. He's willing to become an Internet celeb even at the cost of making his loved ones and people around suffer.
