Synopsis
A psychological movie based on a true story. Martina is a politician who is both financially and socially more successful than her husband. Karel has long wanted a divorce but Martina refuses, saying it would hurt her career. So Karel asks friend Ota to seduce Martina while Karel records her infidelity on video. This, he assumes, will make it easy to force his wife to divorce him. Instead it releases a whirlwind of lies, intrigue, hypocrisy, and manipulation-all spiced with a generous dose of humor. A lie which becomes true must eventually again become a lie in order for the protagonists to get on with their lives. Each tries to hurt the others but in the end they hurt themselves.
