Short synopsis:

Jaka from Slovenia is twelve years old. He has been training motocross since the age of three and cannot imagine life without it. He would like to qualify for the finals of the European Championship in the Czech Republic: in four qualifying matches, he must therefore be at least 10th in his zone. This will be a difficult task for him, as he is driving an 85cc engine for the first time. Already in the second match in France, he falls unhappily and breaks his collarbone. He must rest for several weeks after the operation, so he is not doing his best in the match in Portugal. The decisive match, in which he can still qualify for the finals, is in front of the home fans in Slovenia. Will he succeed?
