Nowhere in Moravia
Nominated for 13 Czech Lion awards, including Best Film and Best Director
German teacher Maruna (Tatiana Vilhelmová) runs the local pub. It doesn’t look like she’ll ever get married, since there aren’t many suitable men in her small village: the indecisive mayor (Ivan Trojan) spends most of his time in a hunter’s blind waiting for his stag, the childishly naive Olin (Jaroslav Plesl) is seen by the others as a harmless village idiot, and roofer Kódl (Lukáš Latiňák) chases after every passing skirt. Maruna’s troubles also include her domineering mother (Johanna Tesařová), whom she looks after along with her sister Jaruna (Lenka Krobotová). When Jaruna takes the chance to leave for Munich with the elderly German Hans, Maruna is stuck in “Nowhere” all alone with her mother and her suitors. But one day, something unexpected happens here, Nowhere in Moravia…
