Synopsis
Cristi (Dragos Bucur) is a policeman who refuses to arrest a young
man who offers hashish to two of his school mates.
"Offering" is punished by the law. Cristi believes that
the law will change, he does not want the life of a young man he
considers irresponsible to be a burden on his conscience. For his
superior the word conscience has a totally different meaning...
