In 1976 a famous American writer Nathan Zuckerman is challenged by Czech immigrant Sisovsky who implores him to retrieve valuable manuscripts from communist Czechoslovakia. The writer accepts this dangerous mission, where his every step is observed by secret police. Once in Prague, he meets Sisovsky‘s flamboyant and wild ex-wife Olga who is in possession of the manuscripts. The evolving relationship between the hot-headed Olga and Nathan is a confrontation between two worlds - the repressed East and free West. But, Olga won‘t give up the manuscripts to Nathan so easily… (Moscow International Film Festival)

I'll always look forward to a new Irena Pavlásková film, even though the risk is getting greater. The Prague Orgy did not do well in the movie theaters - the film whizzed through so quickly that they were gone in no time. It's a shame, it could have been really great. It’s based on a popular novel and a great story about how Irena got herself the copyright. But unfortunately, it was somehow forgotten that the famous novel, originally published by Sixty-Eight Publishers, is only one part of the Nathan Zuckerman series, so the viewer who is not familiar with the context has nothing to latch on to. He doesn't know the characters, he has to cope with very unbelievable sets, and unknown faces in the main roles. On the other hand, if you've already started reading the book, the film illustration serves quite well as a supplement, but you mustn't want more than that. Unfortunately, two great catchphrases and an adorable supporting role by Jan Hrušínský are definitely not enough to make the whole film good.
