Francin, manager of a small-town brewery, has a charming wife whose abundant blonde locks are an adornment to the town. Maryska looks ethereal but loves meat and beer, while Francin is an ascetic. The strict members of the brewery board of directors come to audit the accounts, but are diverted from concentrating on Francin's detailed reports by Maryska, who has organized a pig-killing feast and is ably assisting the butcher. When she invites the old curmudgeons on the board to enjoy the fresh pork, they are too happy to agree. Francin doesn't know whether he is going to get a permanent contract. To make things worse his brother Pepin - eccentric, noisy and garrulous - turns up on an indefinite visit.

Lepší pán
Just in time, Róza Riedlová returns from the grave to beneficially intervene in the life of timid Jana, who is full of doubts about everything and especially about herself. If Róza, that charming older lady, is a ghost at all, then she is definitely one of the kindest ones in our world. Otherwise, she would not be able to bring such wonderful order to human relationships, not only in Jana's family and at school, but everywhere she appears. An appealing comedy story that has won awards both at home and abroad. In 1995, a jury in Montevideo named it the best film for children, and in 1994, it won first prize in the children's film category at the Ota Hofman Festival in Ostrov, with Iva Janžurová winning the award for most likable adult actor for her role as Róza.
