Synopsis:

Twelve-year-olds Nikola and Antonio live next door to each other and are inseparable. Their families, who have a long-running feud, don’t like it one bit. At holidays, the boys have fun shooting carbide, film their escapades and post them on YouTube hoping to score millions of views. But not everyone is in equally high spirits and the quarrel between the families escalates.
