Synopsis

In this poetic documentary, Bolek Polívka, Eva Holubová, Petr Čtvrtníček, and others stars of Tomáš Vorel's feature film Out of the City - take their own real life journeys to the village and countryside. It describes their attempts to live away from town, and it follows their return. Although Bolek Polívka loves his farm, he is incapable of living outside the city limits. Eva Holubová wanted her children to grow up in harmony with nature, but the sacrifice was too great and she returned. Petr Čtvrtníček floats contentedly along on his houseboat, but when he disembarks he heads back to town. In the end, it seems that the city has won the prime spot in our hearts.
