Ondřej Hudeček's "Covid western" - an award-winning director from Sundance (for the short film Furiant) - follows a small-time thief who, after his release from prison, gets caught up in a series of insurance scams. This time, however, his goal is to help local businesses survive. The film blends dark comedy, drama, satire, and crime, revealing a community where the boundaries between good and evil blur in extraordinary times. Authentic atmosphere of Strážnice is enhanced by local dialect, numerous non-professional actors, and strong performances by Matyáš Řezníček, Filip Kaňkovský, Václav Neužil, and Stanislav Majer.
