Synopsis
Cobakka and Spiker are two Moscow drop-outs who visit London with dreams of golden pavements. But the city is a cold, unwelcoming place and the two soon fall off the streets and into the gutter. From where they stand the skies are full of clouds, and it becomes impossible to look up at the stars.
