On Lipský's first film trip into the Normalisation reality the director was accompanied by writers Ladislav Smoljak and Zdeněk Svěrák. The result is now a classic crazy comedy, where most characters end up in the care of psychiatrist Chocholoušek because of the naivety of the "hero". (Summer Film School)
