When Zdenka, a single woman in Czech Republic, started playing online games with strangers, she didn't know it would change her life. Neither did Tabish, a computer scientist a world away in Pakistan.
A Czech high diver's Olympic dreams are shattered when she suffers a devastating injury while training. Forced to leave the sport she loves, she follows a photographer friend into the world of nude modeling, ultimately reinventing herself as an adult film actress.

When the junior ice hockey team from the small town of Náchod, in the Czech Republic, sets off in a bus to Morocco to play the away game in an exchange programme, the players and their coach expect an easy victory and a cultural shock: “bring ear plugs”, the coach suggests them with a touch of undisguised condescendence, so as not to hear the call to prayer early in the morning. Both on and off the ice, Rozálie Kohoutová and Tomáš Bojar’s camera focuses on a few teenagers and their exchanges, simultaneously funny and cruel, in a clumsy English.
When writer Bohumil Hrabal bought a cottage in Kersko, Central Bohemia, in 1965, he certainly did not expect that this place would one day become a museum dedicated to his life and work. Time cannot be stopped, but the Central Bohemian Region and the Polabské Museum are attempting to turn back the clock—at least in one spot in Kersko. Writer Bohumil Hrabal’s cottage is undergoing renovations that will restore it to the appearance it had during the years when the famous writer lived there. Authentic furnishings, furniture, and personal items will be returned to the cottage. A typewriter with a draft of a text will sit on the desk. Everything should look as if Bohumil Hrabal had merely stepped away for a moment.
