The movie is based on the works of renowned Czech writer Bohumil Hrabal. It's a mosaic of short episodes and images that captures the joys and sorrows of the inhabitants of Kersko, a small wooded area. The characters are simple yet sensitive, with their own pleasures, such as collecting useless items, and their greatest delight is hunting. The film showcases the crude poetry of amateur hunting against the backdrop of dreamy scenery. The director blends sentimental lyricism with rough humor, resulting in a never-ending landscape of life near nature. The actors deliver brilliant performances, with Rudolf Hrusinsky and Jaromír Hanzlik standing out for their unique charm rooted in pain and inebriation.
