It is the 1920's. The good-looking hostess Věra demonstrates household robots to visitors of the Futurum exhibition. Young inventor Petr comes to her rescue when she tries to flee from two men wanting to take her away. Věra confesses that she has fled from home because her father, a factory owner, wanted to profitably marry her off. Petr is fascinated by the emancipated woman and shows her round his laboratory, where he plans to create a robot of his own - but one that would be far more advanced. Věra cuts herself on a broken test-tube and a drop of her blood gets in the solution. In the morning, they are taken aback to see Věra's double. This lucky chance has helped Petr create an artificial being, Miss Golem. She has a single motive for her actions: to take care of Věra and allow her to do only what is good for her.
루드비크는 헬레나를 만나기 위해 고향으로 돌아간다. 그는 헬레나의 남편 파벨 제마네크로 인해 고초를 겪은 바 있다. 대학생 시절 체코슬로바키아 공산당 학생연맹 소속이던 둘은 절친한 사이였다. 어느 여름, 방학을 연인과 보내길 바란 루드비크는 당시 연인 마르케타가 자기 대신 공산당 연수를 택하자 엽서에 "트로츠키 만세!"라는 농담을 섞어 보낸다. 문제는 파벨이 이를 빌미로 루드비크를 당과 학교 모두에서 퇴출당하게 했다는 것이다. 심지어 그는 이후 강제 노역 부대에 끌려간다. 하지만 헬레나를 유혹해 파벨에게 복수하려는 루드비크의 계획은 우스꽝스럽게 뒤틀리고 만다.

Based on a novel by Maria Majerova, this well-photographed but routine romantic drama is directed and co-scripted by Vaclav Krska. Set in a more old-fashioned time, the story centers around Lenka (Suzana Fisarskova), a young woman with a domineering, psychologically abusive father. When Lenka falls in love she suffers the ultimate injustice when her father and her family forbid her to marry the man. They see no advantage in such a union and want her to marry a wealthy local landowner instead, for obvious reasons. But Lenka is not as submissive as they think and she runs away to the city to look for the man she loves -- only to find a serious problem, though a surmountable one, is waiting for her.
