Ženy, víno, Hvar (2010)

Overview

The island of Hvar is 1,000 kilometres from the Czech Republic. Every summer a ferry brings several thousand Czechs to spend a well-deserved holiday here. Occasionally, someone does not return. Since the early 1970s, 42 Czech women have married on Hvar. Why did Czech women connect their destiny with Hvar? What role did the sea play and what role did the relatively free conditions in Yugoslavia play? What do they think is the difference between Czech men and men from Hvar? And what do southern men appreciate most about Czech women? The film by director Tomáš Vávra offers answers. Jitka Carič, Eva Vucetič, Vanda Blaškovič, Bohdana Dulcič and others will tell their life stories in the film.
