Synopsis
The last drop for Jan's resolution is the volun- tary death of his father-in-law, whose strength and patience ran dry after an exhausting and complicated marriage. Jan is sure that he and his wife Olga are on the same route. He recalls his past life when he used to have his own will and dreams to live again with dignity and free- dom. He wants control over his own life again. His solution is to escape from the present life. In this movie we watch, in parallel, the fates of Jan's married daughters Olinka and Alenka and his sons-in-law Erik and Pepík.
