The film is made in the second year during our studies at the Beuth University of Applied Sciences Berlin. We had no financial support from school. Because the operating company of the Berlin subway didn't want the topic of ticket insoectors in the media we were unable the get a permission for the shooting. After this big rebound we begun to think about alternative solutions. Finaly we found the best lokation of all. The Prague Metro in the Czech Republic. This was one of the best things to happen to the project.
