Philosophical movie, staged at the least philosophical environment imaginable: A closed scenery of a nudist spot, where some hired Czech stuff is making a plain erotic movie for a rich Russian producer. Nothing in this movie is what it seems to be at the first superficial glance.

Once upon a time there was a flower kingdom full of scents and colors, and because it was at the very end of the world, it was called Tramtárie. And that's where Hurvínek and Mánička set off. The once fertile land was hit by such a drought that the vain princess Gerbera fell ill and became sad. The elf Parliamentarian therefore declares that everything will turn for the better when someone is found who can make the withered flower laugh and bring her "blue from heaven". The task is indeed complex, not that Hurvínek and Mánička are rushing to it, but when the situation escalates and the princess threatens the pair of friends that if they don't fulfill it, her carnivore will feast on Žeryk, they don't hesitate for a minute. They don't have time to spare, the furry one could be amen at any moment! There is only one way out of this mess, Hurvínek and Mánička must find "blue from heaven". On their arduous journey, they meet the Lord of the Wind, but he doesn't know where to look either.

This romantic comedy presents a story of two women, twenty-year-old Laura, an editor at a woman’s weekly, and her widowed mother, a translator-interpreter named Jana. The two of them tirelessly seek Mr. Right. Having once lived through an intense relationship with a ‘typical’ Czech man, Jana intentionally avoids Czech men. She searches for her dream foreigner while long-sufferingly warding off the tragicomic advances of her good-natured neighbor Žemla. After several unsuccessful attempts, Laura falls in love with Oliver, a forty year old who works as an ad agency idea man. Little does she suspect that twenty years ago Oliver was Jana’s true love…

33-year-old Roman decides to tackle his drug addiction by undergoing group therapy as part of a community holed up on an isolated farm in the Šumava mountains. Twelve people, men and women of varying ages and social status, voluntarily subject themselves to a tough regime under the supervision of three therapists. Many of them have stared death in the face already – overdoses, suicide attempts, and aggression heightened by the use of hard drugs, outwardly affecting even the strongest of them. Each brings something of his past into the group, which he has to experience again, both for himself and for those assembled. Past anguish, wrongs and guilt give rise to new problems: in this thickening atmosphere of suspicion and lies, who can still be trusted? This intimate psychological drama deliberately sets out to break up the tight narrative form through retrospectives in which we learn about the past life of each individual.
