Synopsis
A feature-length lyrical movie by Vladimír Morávek on the theme of the famous play A Ballad for a Bandit. A burned-out group of intellectuals decides to travel to Kolochava in Ukraine to perform the play there; however, everything goes wrong. They arrive late, the Ukrainians expect something else and the South Bohemian Philharmonic gets lost in Transcarpathia. A romanticising story about the bandit Nikola Šuhaj is changing into poetry, which lives not in the there and then, but strictly in the here and now.
