ME-SA - Aerowaves

SuperNaturals

Czech Republic and Slovakia The Twenty15

Two completely ordinary mortals decide to become superheroes. Can there be room for both of them? With (fictional) feats of superhuman strength, some gold pants and plenty of beautifully quirky dancing, our two heroes compete with each other.

While trying to play at something they're not, these two characters create a fun and wry look at relationships. Perhaps they will have to rely on the secret weapons of ordinary mortals after all.
