Jeřabiny z Hangzhou – Cimický Jan (2017)

Marek Veselý is a manager at a successful cultural agency, and his travels often take him to China. He is less successful in his romantic relationships, and we meet him at the moment when his latest relationship is ending. He tries to overcome the feeling of emptiness, and by a stroke of happy coincidence, he meets the extraordinarily talented violinist Liu Jian at a critical moment and arranges her internship in Prague. Their relationship is peculiar; they are mutually attracted to each other but are unable to express it for a long time. The situation is further complicated by the fact that Liu was cunningly used by her friend and her partner to smuggle a valuable stolen item into Europe, of which Liu was completely unaware. Trusting Liu finds herself in great danger. Thanks to Marek and his friends, they manage to resolve the critical situation, Liu completes her long-desired internship with her great idol, and returns happy and in love back to China. However, she faces a cold shower there – her family strongly opposes her marriage to Marek. Liu succumbs to their emotional pressure, promises to break up with Marek, and keeps her promise. She leaves for the southern Chinese city of Hangzhou to start anew as a violinist in a symphony orchestra. Desperate Marek tries to track down and understand what happened. It seems that Liu has vanished from the surface...
