Vera ha tenido una vida maravillosa al lado de Jindrich, y está decidida a cumplir su última voluntad: correr una ma-ratón. Esta optimista mujer, madre de tres chicas, está convencida de ello. Dividirán la carrera en 4 partes, y entre todas completarán los 42 kilómetros de la maratón, como un equipo compenetrado. Por supuesto, para ella el hecho de que ninguna de ellas haya corrido nunca, no supone ningún problema.
Special Effects
Romi (Gabriela Mícová), a prostitute, is anything but successful at her job: she is of far too gentle a nature for her clients. The more obstinately she is pushed to the streets by her pimp Franz (Stanislav Majer), the closer she is to a complete breakdown. One day Romi is addressed by a property speculator referring to himself as a "wealthy Jew" (Martin Finger). He does not demand any sexual services of her. He satisfies himself with Romi telling him stories, for which he lavishly rewards her. However, no one shares the sudden happiness with Romi. Her work-mates and current clients turn their backs on her, as does Franz, with whom Romi is in love. The whole story takes place in the setting of a dilapidated city, during the clean-up of which politicians openly split their profit with speculators and lobbyists, all under protection from the police.
