Dominik is the product of a success-driven marriage between businessman Andrzej and CEO Beata. With only 100 days to go before his final school exams Dominik seems on target to graduate with top marks and into the finest university. However 100 days to go still means 100 days to conform to school social rules. Through a series of humiliating events Dominik's world comes crashing down, he reverts from real life and logs into the virtual world. Cloaked in his avatar Dominik meets Sylvia, a would-be suicider who hasn't left this world in years, and joins her friends in the Suicide Room. Soon enough Dominik struggles to decipher what is real as common virtual experiences bleed dangerously into reality.
