Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
Vaclav, the village loser, in his 40's bordering on autism, lives with his widowed mother on the outskirts of the village. He is seen by villagers as the local fool, nothing but a constant pain for them, but there is a skeleton in the village closet concerning his father's death. He gets no mercy from his brother Frantisek either. The two forever compete for the attention of their mother, and now even for Frantisek's mistress Lida. The tension between Vaclav, his brother and the village escalates into a criminal act. Though no serious harm is done, Vaclav gets no protection this time and is put into prison. For the first time without his mother's shelter he faces the real world and becomes a target of fellow prisoners. Haunted by the traumatic memories of his dad, he is dying slowly. Mother decides to ask for a presidential pardon from Vaclav Havel, but it will only have a chance if she submits a letter of support signed by all the villagers. Will the village face their conscience and accept Václav again?

| User ReviewHanna KExcellent movie. Absolutely one of the best Czech films I've seen so far! |
| User ReviewTerri HReally good movie, without slow boaring places - well written |
| User ReviewPampalini LFeature film based on a true story that took place during Vaclav Havel's vast amnesty in early 90s. |
| User ReviewPrivate UExcellent movie! Czech story about czech people, with special personnality of Vaclav, story at once comical and sad. |
| User ReviewVojta PAt first I thought: another Czech tragicomedy, no thank you! In the past years, almost all Czech movies are the same and only a very few are worth watching. And although "Vaclav" really is one of countless Czech movies of this genre, it stands out, because it truly describes the common personality of Czech people. It left an impression on me. |
| User ReviewTom TNot really what i ve expected and its more sad than funny |
| User ReviewMarek DAn average movie. The more you see the more you know it is gonna end up tragedy. It should have been either comedy or drama but not both. |
| User ReviewAmália ?not bad.. actually music is fine, actors are quite good.. but i didnt catch the story.. or it should be just some feeling of something??! |
