Five young people living together in a Prague apartment like to think of techsquatting as a progressive and stimulating lifestyle.

The new form of community living called techsquat is open to all creatives, entrepreneurs and managers who want to share their personal and working space and time with similar-minded people. Five young people living together in a Prague apartment like to think of techsquatting as a progressive and stimulating lifestyle. The filmmakers follow their daily lives as they test the viability of this idea. Their observational approach based on long static shots does not prevent them from engaging in a bit of sarcasm – as hinted at in their choice and ordering of scenes and fully revealed at the film’s end.
