Czech Lion Awards (Czech Oscars)
WINNER – Best Supporting Actress (Antonie Formanová), Best Screenplay and Best Music

Following a theatrical premiere, actors gather to share a couple drinks, but an uninvited guest crashes the party. A drunk Russian officer comes to sell a canister of gas, but the business transaction turns into a vodka drinking race. The Russian, besotted by the beautiful Milada and entertained by the comedic cowardice of the men present, won’t leave. The Russian, having a grand old time, pulls out a gun. The party, beating to the rhythm of the cosmically psychedelic music by Kill the Dandies!, spins out of control and the participants can’t keep up. The game becomes a trap. Heroes become cowards, and cowards become heroes. There is only one way out of the occupied bar: a revolution! After this night, no one will come out the same. –Cinemax

The film is also a part of Czech That Film, bringing the best of contemporary film to select cities throughout the United States.
