Dramaturgy
Valerie, una adolescente checoslovaca que vive con su abuela, se está convirtiendo en mujer, pero esa transformación resulta secundaria a los efectos que experimenta cuando se pone un par de aretes mágicos. Ahora que ve el mundo a su alrededor bajo una luz diferente, Valerie debe soportar su despertar sexual mientras intenta discernir la realidad de la fantasía mientras se encuentra con el sacerdote lascivo Gracian, un extraño vampiro y una gente de carnaval de otro mundo.
Dramaturgy
A baleful limping man walks through Prague. He is Asmodeus (Juraj Herz), the fiend of lustfulness, entertaining himself by putting together by magic couples of lovers. He only fails at the swimming pool. Zuzana (Jana Sulcová), the good-looking blonde, ignores the men whom the devil foists off onto her. She loves Honza (Václav Neckár) and the boy shares her feelings. The fiend is annoyed by the couple and tries to provoke a row. He sends heavy rain to force them into a hotel and then warns Zuzana's father by phone, but the young lovers manage to get out in time. Then the obstinate Asmodeus takes Honza in his sleep to the Institute for Emotional Disorders, where he shows him the ugly sides of love - hysteria, voyeurism, fetishism, suicide attempts...
