Pramen

An elegant doctor, Ingrid (Aňa Geislerová), works in the mid-1980s at a remote provincial hospital. She is weighed down by an exhausted marriage and a stagnant career - spending most of her time with patients, delivering babies and terminating unwanted pregnancies. She also performs sterilizations on Romani women without ensuring they fully understand the consequences.

A new friendship with a young hospital attendant, Agáta, prompts Ingrid to see things differently and begin questioning the rules she has long followed without thought.

Ivan Ostrochovský's drama opens an unresolved chapter of Czechoslovak history, when the state decided whether people could have children.
