How Poets Are Enjoying Their Lives/Jak basnikum chutna zivot DVD
Synopsis
After a successful graduation, newly minted doctor Štěpán Šafránek returns to his hometown equipped with knowledge and his mother's advice to start his internship at the local hospital. The amusing student years are over as Štěpán navigates through the new life and environment, dealing with a strict head doctor, flirtatious colleague Sahulák, colleague Tupa, and a grumpy cleaner. He manages to anger the head doctor by assigning Mrs. Hubáčková to a perfectly equipped double room. However, this leads him to meet her charming daughter Alenka, which comes at a cost. Due to his principles and attitudes, Štěpán is soon transferred to the position of a country doctor in Bezdíkov. There, in a small office with a coal stove and a talkative nurse Tonička, he must handle not only crowds of people waiting for stamps and various certificates but also afternoon visits to patients. He reunites with Alenka, who lives in the local castle with her parents. When he sees his former classmate and roommate Mireček on TV, now a delegate of an international healthcare organization, he joins forces with other classmates Venoš, Honza, and Vendulka to kidnap him for a party in Venoš's cellar. However, Štěpán increasingly devotes his time to Alenka, whom he affectionately calls Píšťalka. He falls in love with her, despite her engagement to the down-to-earth teacher Hájek, who has his life meticulously planned. Eventually, Píšťalka chooses Štěpán over Hájek, but not before overcoming many obstacles.
