Synopsis edit

Friends and former small-town classmates Štěpán and Kendy are both studying in Prague—Štěpán is taking medicine at Charles University, while Kendy studies directing at FAMU. Kendy's studies are going well, but Štěpán struggles, both with course load and with finances. Kendy advises his friend to make connections with a rich family by meeting their eighteen-year-old daughter, Saša, who, though not quite attractive, longs for a boyfriend. Štěpán's attempt at courtship ends in disaster, however. He subsequently meets a beautiful medical student nicknamed "the cave", who is also romantically pursued by the unpleasant Dr. Fast. Štěpán attempts to impress her by acing his studies, but in the end, his quest ends in disappointment.
