A psychological drama of a high-profile family in the 1920s. András Erdély, the son of an influential MP, is placed in a psychiatric sanatorium to escape punishment for the murder of his wife. Through his memories and intimate confessions, the viewer gets to know the atmosphere of the house ruled by his despotic father, the son's journey from "better society" to a social career and uncovers the secret of his sexual deviations, everything that led András, a mentally disturbed man, to crime. The story of love, morbid passion and hatred is also a questioning of the roots of evil in man, of responsibility for one's own actions and of the limits of tolerance and medical ethics.

The story is based on the situation in the housing estates, where parties of children who don't know how to spend their free time proliferate.

Television adaptation of a short story by Czech journalist and novelist Jakub Arbes. The depiction of love and death brings a suggestive story about jealousy, a destructive passion that becomes self-destructive as well. Elizabeth and Maria, two inseparable friends from boarding school, at one point both fall in love with a young student. The feelings of one are reciprocated; the other drops out. Unable to forgive this double betrayal, she fanatically sets her sights on destroying her rival's happiness.

The top sport was also closely monitored in the communist era, and officials were naturally bothered that the pentathlon team failed to win the World Championships. But the measures that should have ensured redress were caught up in a web of behind-the-scenes machinations that backfired on the athletes themselves, their endurance and their family backgrounds. While the film has critical ambitions and wants to reveal much of what should have remained hidden from the public eye, it is a rather clumsy and schematic view, not very convincing in terms of realisation.
