Gracias a La Vida

Patrik is a virtuoso guitarist living an otherwise simple life beset by a passion for beautiful women and cars. His charming girlfriend Rita unwittingly sets off a bout of jealousy in Patrik, preparing the stage for the unexpected. Patrik meets Roland Zagreus, a paraplegic aristocrat withdrawn from life. The two men see themselves in each other, along with a solution to their problems. Zagreus makes Patrik an offer he can't refuse. GRACIAS A LA VIDA is a Mediterranean mystery, bleached in the high-noon sun, where the summer heat transforms into musical cinema, framed by Indrek Kruusimaa's melodies for the guitar. The film is inspired by Albert Camus' (unpublished) debut novel "A Happy Death" (first published in 1971).
