TACHO is a black comedy about a successful Rally driver and his race of a lifetime. Alex cannot imagine life without Rally, devoting himself exclusively to it. After an accident during which his co-driver is seriously injured, and with the date of the most important race of the season inexorably approaching, Alex’s manager is desperately searching for a replacement co-driver. Alex wants to race at all costs, despite the explicit ban on driving imposed by his doctor. He has been racing for fifteen years, but the greatest achievement has always escaped him by a hair’s breadth. After a fated encounter with a girl, he surprisingly decides that she alone is to be his co-driver in this race of a lifetime –the totally inexperienced Lucy, also committed to victory. The German, Weber, Alex’s greatest rival, already sees himself as a winner.  Also dreaming of victory are Slovakian adventurer, Jožo, and his new co-driver, Jula, whom he rescued from the clutches of the Mafia. English racing drivers, Charlie and Dave, are also practising intensely, albeit for something entirely different from Rally. Will this dramatic race have any winner at all? Indeed, life is about living every moment…

The black comedy tells the story of a successful Rally racer Alex Bold, who has an accident during the race and his passenger is injured and refusing to take the next competition. Alex’s manager Levent desperately starts looking for an alternate, but Alex finally selects the most important race of the season to use the completely inexperienced Lucy as co driver. The racers become entangled in a fraudulent trade in truffles and fear for their lives. English competitors Charles and Dave are in the rally, but there is something not 100% right with the duo …

How can a Mafioso Jožo help Alex? What is “100 over the dinosaur”?

Where the hell are those truffles and who will survive it all?

Life is about all the time
