A Slovakian-Hungarian scrap metal dealer paid 2000 guineas for a no-name ugly runt of a horse who is now worth 200 times as much and may well be the fastest horse on Earth. The miracle appears in the form of a galloping horse in a country weakened in its economy and identity. In the tracks of the unbeatable Overdose, unexpected collective emotions rise and mingle with obscure business interests. The film observes a community's feelings and reactions from the point of view of a 'prey-animal' – here in Hungary, where horse racing is in its ruins, and in those European countries where this tradition is still part of the culture.
