Little Vendulka receives a birthday gift of a seemingly innocuous children's book. Little she knows that the book is actually a portal into the surreal world of nursery rhymes and Josef Lada's paintings.

No Woman is allowed into Karlstejn Castle! Yet the enamoured Daniele Kolářová and the equally enamoured Jana Brejchová manage to spend one night in disguise in the Castle despite the strict royal ban.

En décembre 1917, à la prison de Wronke, Rosa Luxembourg se souvient : 1906, déjà en prison, à Varsovie, l'exécution d'hommes dans la cour, son propre interrogatoire. 1899, Berlin : ses retrouvailles avec Léo Jogiches, son camarade de combat, son compagnon dans la vie. Lors de la soirée du jour de l'an, elle le présente aux dirigeants de la social-démocratie August Bebel, Karl Kautsky, mais évite le révisionniste Bernstein. 1910, Berlin : après une longue période d'activité révolutionnaire coupée d'emprisonnements en Pologne et en Allemagne, elle retrouve son amie Luise Kautsky. Puis, Léo arrive de Varsovie. Meetings et discussions théoriques de plus en plus vives s'enchaînent. L'amour et la politique s'emmêlent...

Reinhard Heydrich was considered the most dangerous man in Nazi Germany after Hitler himself. The plot to kill him masterminded in England and carried through to finality in Prague in 1942, is told in this gripping dramatised documentary special. Featuring meticulous reconstructions, coupled with authentic historical film, some of it never shown before the film powerfully presents a vivid account of the only successful assassination of a leading Nazi in World War II. It also chillingly recreates the terrible human cost of SS savagery against the Resistance and the total obliteration of the village of Lidice.

The film is essentially a feature-length commercial for an exhibition to mark the 40th anniversary of the nationalisation of the Czechoslovak film industry, to be held at the Prague U Hybernu venue. The protagonists of the piece are comedians Oldrich Kaiser and Jirí Lábus, who are set to accept an award from Japanese television representatives at the exhibition. At the same time, five gangsters plot to seize a revolutionary invention devised by professor Suzuki - a super holograph, which enables any figure from television to be transported in the flesh into the real world, and vice-versa.
