​Four couples, one child. A gripping story of how convoluted a child’s journey can be to the arms where he truly belongs. Clara lives alone with her two children and becomes pregnant unplanned. Her manipulative and well-to-do ex-husband Adam, from whom Klara has left, wants to sue her for her young son Danik. The older daughter Zorka is in her teens. Under economic pressure, Klára decides to go for a direct adoption. Four couples gradually enter her life - the eccentric influencer Beata with the businessman Hubert, the not very harmonious couple Alice and Michal, the registered partners Petr and Vladimír and the slightly older couple Kryštof and Hanka, who have had many IVF cycles. The unconventional social worker Stork, whose character covers the topic of foster family care in its many forms, also plays a significant role. Who will eventually become the parent of the unborn child?

Czech Republic, 2019, 75 min.
In August 2017 a group of teenage ice hockey players from the Czech town of Náchod set off to Morocco onto what was to become the most interesting training camp of their careers. They came here not only to play ice hockey, but also to get to know the locals and their way of life. Several months later, the boys from the Moroccan town of Salé headed to Czech Republic to experience the same thing vice versa. Two teams, two cultures, one mutual interaction. A walk on thin ice full of liberating humour.
