Description was written before the event

A new film by Jan Svěrák, made in complete secrecy over many months. The comedy "Five Plums" follows a group of friends - two women of advanced age and three of their companions - who set out on a sea voyage without adult supervision.

Their journey gradually transforms into an expedition full of unexpected situations, humor, and life reflections. The film revolves around friendship, love, forgiveness, and courage.

About the venue: Bio Oko

Bio Oko is an art-house cinema in the Holešovice district of Prague 7, designed by Jaroslav Stockar-Bernkopf and Josef Šolc and built between 1937 and 1940. After reconstruction it reopened in October 2007 and switched to digital projection in 2011. The programme focuses on art and alternative films, themed festivals, film cycles, and morning screenings for children and seniors. The auditorium features bean bags and deck chairs alongside standard seats, and the venue includes a coffee bar and a film-poster gallery.
