Synopsis

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.

After graduating from the Technical University of Budapest in 1974, Gábor Ferenczi acquired a degree as film and television director from the Academy of Drama and Film University of Budapest in 1984. He worked as an independent director, script writer, consultant, actor and he was manager of the Béla Balázs Studio between 1984-88. He has made numerous documentaries, features, television programs, reference films, and commercials and lectured at several universities in Budapest.
