prehistory

In the future , mankind will have used up all energy sources. However, the survivors succeeded in generating electricity from people's excrement and building a city (Shit City). In order to ensure a sustainable energy supply, the city has decided that the amount of excrement will be measured and controlled by an ID chip in the anus and that the most productive citizens will be rewarded with the drug Hart, which is consumed in the form of an ice cream on a stick . This increased production, but also increased the number of drug addicts. This in turn led to drug trafficking, crime, and negative mutations such as shrinkage, blue skin, infertility, and decreased intelligence. Aachi and Ssipak are two crooks who roam the streets and keep themselves alive by trading on the black market . The film relies a lot on humor and strong expressions.

They are already beaten up by a gang and blackmailed into delivering enough hard. After they beat up the producer on a porn shoot and administered the drug, the producer finds himself in a state of intoxication, thinks he is Superman and falls out of the window. Then he disguises himself as a sexy nurse, breaks into the gangway and is remotely controlled and observed by the two crooks and assigned to wipe out gang one. However, with a girl distracting Ssipak, the plan gets out of hand and the porn producer is beaten up. However, the mutants break in shortly afterwards and steal their drugs from the gang. The porn producer wakes up again and shoots some of the mutants because he is intoxicated and thinks they are aliens. He is taken to the guide who wants to kill him. However, since he wants to produce a film in which the ID chip is exchanged, the guide decides to remove the chips from some mutants and the porn producer to find a suitable girl for his film.

However, they are watched by the two crooks through the window and Ssipak storms the room, whereupon the girl and the two of them flee and they go on a chase with many adventures.

The government hires an elderly man to resuscitate a monster and offers him corpses in exchange. However, this is lured away by the mutants.
