Directed by Bohdan Sláma
Comedy, Drama · 1h 39m
Zdena and Jiřina are two women who, under normal circumstances, would probably never have gotten along. However, a chance encounter changes both their lives, and gradually an unexpected and strong friendship develops between them. Each of them is struggling with her own family problems. Jiřina is tied to her domineering husband Pavel and her son Emil, while Zdena, after her husband’s death, finds solace in her garden and has a hard time dealing with her daughter Jana’s overprotective nature. Gradually, they both become witnesses to the other’s humiliating situations and, at the same time, give each other the courage to take their lives back into their own hands. Their journey together turns into a series of unexpected adventures, embarrassing moments, and misunderstandings. But the trip ends unexpectedly, and their friendship faces its toughest test.
