The hero of the opening story, the Postman Puppet (directed by Zdeněk Troška), works as a postman in the mountains. When his wife is taken to the maternity ward, he goes on his usual hike through the solitudes. Little Libor goes after the father of two girls (Petr Pospíchal), who longs for a son. Meanwhile, the weather on the ridges worsens sharply. An experienced mountaineer and his little friend spend the night in a makeshift shelter... The second episode of Hádanka (directed by Jan Ekl) has a criminal plot. A new father (Vlastimil Hašek) gets drunk with friends in a wine bar and the next day becomes a suspect in a murder. He doesn't remember the critical moments, but his testimony leads to the capture of the real perpetrator... The main character of the final short story True Love (directed by Vladimír Drha) is a frat boy (Pavel Zedníček) who spends whole days in pubs. He gets a harsh lesson from his wife, who refuses to let him see the baby...

Roman Hlava grew up with his diplomat parents in Latin America where he had been home-schooled by his over doting mother. The over indulgence of affection and praise has given the boy an over confidence. This is quickly squashed by his new peers when the family returns to the Czech Republic. This leads to neurotic tics and the nickname Mrkácek the 'Blinker.' A stay at a children's camp provides new friends, acceptance, an appreciation of nature, a new outlook on life, and loss of the tics.

À la fin de l’année 1942, l’armée d’Hitler s’avance très loin en territoire soviétique. Son objectif principal est Stalingrad. Face à une résistance soviétique acharnée et victime d’un hiver terrible à laquelle elle n’était pas préparée, la VIᵉ armée subit de lourdes pertes. Pendant que Hitler clame victoire à la radio, ses hommes comprennent que la ville va devenir pour eux un enfer d’acier et de sang. Le film relate la bataille de Stalingrad, vue du côté allemand, en suivant le parcours au front du lieutenant Hans von Witzland et de ses hommes. L’histoire débute avec leur montée au front, puis les suit dans l’enfer des combats, où ayant perdu la moitié des hommes du peloton et après avoir été placé sous le commandement d’un capitaine sadique, le lieutenant mène ses hommes à travers les steppes gelées. Après leur encerclement par les forces soviétiques, le groupe ira des tentatives de rébellions en tentatives de désertion puis, enfin vers la mort.

This feature film based on the events of 1938 is a chronicle of the futile efforts of the Czechoslovak president Edvard Benes (Jirí Pleskot), politicians and ordinary citizens, to save the independence and the territorial integrity of the state from the advance of Hitler's Germany. On the 29th of March 1938 the leader of the Sudeten Germans Henlein (Werner Ehrlicher) has a meeting with Hitler (Gunnar Möller). Hitler orders him to intensify pressure on the Czechoslovak government. On the 24th of April in Carlsbad, the Sudetendeutsche Partei (Sudeten German Party) decides upon eight demands that are unacceptable to the Czechoslovak President, since they would ultimately lead to the break-up of the Republic. Benes still shows a certain willingness to negotiate, and Henlein resents this. The Germans are determined to make further negotiations impossible through incidents and violence.
