It calls us for protection against misbehaved children and wants to "defend" the world of adults from disastrous consequences of the ungrateful children's deeds. The film is remarkable for the inimitable humor of Milos Macourek.

Trnka’s sci-fi vision of the future in which machines and robots try to substitute themselves into the most beautiful human relationships.
