Summary

This feature debut is inspired by Romeo and Juliette. It's the love story of the young worker František, who is part of a community of "white Indians" (devotees to an Indian way of life), and the Romany nurse Marie who has a somber relationship with a successful Romany businessman. The hesitancy in their relationship, influenced mainly by the attitudes and prejudices of the people around them eventually leads to their breakup.
