- Jakub, a young, small time drug dealer, wakes up to find the police storming the apartment building while his parents are both away on holiday. After flushing all of his "secret stashes" in the toilet, he finds out they are actually there to investigate the death of the girl upstairs, a close childhood friend of his and the family. He slowly retraces the past week that she has been lying dead in her flat and remembers that he asked her to "receive a package" unbeknownst to her from his drug dealer, Pexeso. He suspects Pexeso was responsible for her death and, and with the aide of his close drug buddy Radek, he wants to avenge her death. Radek gets a pistol from his stepfather who's a policeman along with information the police have regarding the investigation into her death. While following Pexeso's whereabouts, he notices them and approaches Jakub. He expresses his disappointment that he couldn't be at the flat to "deliver the package" and that his twin brother went instead. He gave Jakub an invitation to the new opening of the nightclub him and his brother are opening, ZOO. This new revelation forces Jakub to change his plans of avenging Vera by plotting to kill Pexeso and his brother at the masquerade grand opening. Along the way, Jakub and Radek go in various binges of their preferred drug of choice, Pernik (czech meth). As the evening of the grand opening of ZOO is at hand, Radek's girlfriend decides to join him in the waiting getaway car. Jakub goes through with his plans and confronts the two brothers on the stage of their nighclub with pistol drawn at their heads. Pexeso's brother worriedly admits being at the flat but that nobody answered the door so he left. This makes Jakub rethink his plan, shoots of his guns, and runs off shedding his "mask" and jacket to escape in the fleeing crowd running out of the club. The bodyguards catch up to him fleeing in the getaway car and shoot at the escaping vehicle, placing a fatal round into Radek's girlfriend. After this, the two "friends" part ways and Jakub is left contemplating Vera's death. As Jakub nearly misses an encounter with Pexeso's bodyguards who are looking for him at his flat, he notices out of his window that someone from the building across the street was watching him through a telescope. He sets off to confront the man and whether he was watching Vera's flat on the day of her death. As Jakub feels he can finally shed light on the event that has been plaguing him, he asks whether he can identify who actually visited her on the day of her death. He admits that there was a guy who came with a package, but he left. There was only one person he saw entering Vera's flat, and that was him. Jakub slowly starts to recall his drug enduced frenzy he was in as he walked upstairs to visit Vera that day. She finally gives in and lets him enter, but that she wants him to quit the drug use. As she's making coffee he unwraps a "little package", takes a snort, and drops the rest in her coffee. After having sex, he leaves her as she is feeling terribly sick and he comes to realize what he has done. He goes back to the lake where they both spent their childhood summers and walks out into the water, disappearing in the empty tides.
