BBC2 Play of the Week

A professor's unexpected encounter with a former student in Prague sets him on a journey to confront his philosophical ideals with real-life circumstances, all while his desire for a football match serves as a metaphor for the pursuit of joy and meaning.

In this thought-provoking film, three philosophy professors embark on a journey to Prague for a conference, where one of them, Anderson, is compelled to reevaluate his ethics theories in light of a former student's arrest by the Czech authorities for writing about individualist moral approaches.
