Ivan Heinz, a handsome, perceptive fop, is eighteen. It's 1947 in Czechoslovakia and the leftist dictatorship is coming to power. But Ivan has decided to go his own way in life. He lives through his poetic imagination, his admiration for surrealism and leftist ideals. He is joined on his unconventional travels by a group of bohemian friends celebrating revolutionary ideals with the aid of cigarette smoke and lightly intoxicating liquors. And he throws himself just as enthusiastically into a great, destructive romance. With the fascinating and independent Jana to accompany him, he plunges into a frenetic journey to the depths of absolute freedom. Over three intense years, the lovers push the limits of society and their own strength. But the young communist republic doesn't treat renegades mercifully. On the border of love and freedom, Ivan witnesses the blossoming of a new, unexpected world of internal beauty and fantasy...
