A love story. The classical triangle set against the background of conflict between traditional social models (the Romanies and the white Czech like the Montagues and Capulets). Frantisek is a young workman who feels close to the community of people simulating the lifestyle of the American Indians, falls in love with Marie, a Romany nurse who has a long-standing understanding with a Romany entrepreneur. Frantisek's and Marie's relationship is faced with many a banal prejudice and family aversion, and so the happy ending to their story seems to lie far. Czech Television
