Jakub Zahradník

Even under socialism, which proclaimed the equality of all people, there were status differences. A young bricklayer, who has fallen in love with a college girl from a "better" family, feels this first-hand - the girl's petty bourgeois parents are fundamentally opposed to an unequal relationship from their point of view. In protest, the young lovers decide to live in a tent for the time being and go straight to the park. The surprisingly clueless director Ladislav Rychman has tried to merge disco songs with a tame satire on modern-day rich people.

Jakub's Piano Library concerts attract a remarkable crowd. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, Jakub is forced to close his piano shop and cancel the evening performances. So he decides to invite selected pianists to a church hidden in the alleys of Prague's Old Town. There, in St. Anne's Church, an international spiritual center with the mysterious name Prague Crossroads, a magnificent concert piano is temporarily housed. The pianists play here alone, concentrating intently. How strong is our faith in ourselves, and can art help us? The audience itself is unsettled when confronted with beauty and futility.
