The annual Fifty KM Cross-country Ski Race is upon us again. Pavka is the oldest living member of a family of cross-country skiers; his father broke his pole during the 50 km race and still finished eleventh. Pavka himself had his son Jura born on Mount Sněžka so that he'd oxygenate quickly. Now this son is not living up to his destiny. Instead of cross-country skiing, he's pursuing a completely different 50; he's addicted to seducing mature women. Jura probably won't finish the race again, but he's got a personal goal to fulfill among the snowy world of mountain cottages. (Zlín Film Festival)
