In a bold experiment, a group of young people set out to challenge societal norms by embracing their inner "idiot." They stage public performances, acting as if they are mentally disabled, in an effort to break free from the constraints of traditional adult life. As they delve deeper into their quest for uninhibited self-expression, they confront the harsh realities of a society that struggles to accept their unconventional behavior. The film is a provocative exploration of the human condition, challenging viewers to question their own assumptions about intelligence, disability, and the limits of acceptable behavior.
