A story set in revolutionary China, whose proletariat suffers and starves, but refuses to be passive and rises to decisive resistance. Even the artists believe in the victory of the working class, and the symbol of this victory becomes the red poppy, a flower given by a sailor from a Russian ship that brought the much-prized flour to China as a gift to the Chinese comrades.

If you think shopping malls are crowded, you probably haven’t experienced a Prague canteen in the late 1940s. Two thousand hot dogs sold every day, two thousand human faces and destinies. This film essay presents Prague’s vending machines, snack bars, and cheap cafeterias as a mini-zoo crowded with human specimens. They fight for space, food, or a loving embrace under the microscope of a comically touching director, searching for a theme.
