Synopsis

In the middle of Europe, two nations coexist side by side, close to each other in many ways and yet worlds apart. The Czechs are dedicated atheists, while the Poles are born as baptized Catholics. Czechs shake their heads in disbelief at Polish piety, while Poles hold Czechs in contempt for living without God. A Czech documentary crew sets out on a summertime pilgrimage across Poland in order to investigate through the camera lens the actual situation regarding the notion of “Czech atheism vs. Polish religion”.
