How to Shake Off a Bride (Jak se zbavit nevěsty)


Watch Trailer

Eva (Lenka Vlasáková) owns a pastry shop, raises her son, and takes care of her quirky, formidable mother (Jana Švandová). She gets on beautifully with her ex-husband Honza (David Matásek), and there could even be the potential for them to reunite. They almost kiss and then share a candlelit dinner where Honza expresses his love… for another woman–a beautiful, likeable and sophisticated pianist named Linda. To top it all off, they want Eva to make the wedding cake for their upcoming nuptials. Meanwhile, Eva’s mother sees a window of opportunity to deal with one inconvenient bride.
