SYNOPSIS

Robert works for a travel agency and helps to arrange scenes from the everyday lives of "ordinary" Czech families as an attraction for Japanese tourists. He also works as a kind of matchmaker and occasionally helps pair up his friends. He helps to separate his friend Hanka from Peter, a radio announcer, who tries to capture "real" life by recording moments from "reality" and playing them over the air. Vesna has come to Prague from Skopje because, she says, it is the place where UFOs are more likely to land, but of course her true reason is very different. Hanka is stalked by Ondrej, a respected surgeon, who is almost insanely attracted to her and is willing to give up his family and career for her...
