This animated comedy from director Pavel Koutský playfully breaks the myths about the Hussite era as the pedestal of history is occupied not by preachers and military leaders but by two unbelievable scatterbrains, who become the heroes of their time against their will.

An animated film compiled by David Ehrlich consisting of 27 animators from different countries all explaining themselves through their animation.
