Quote :
Josef Tkaloun is a teacher at a high school in Prague who cannot control his anger when his pupils misbehave in his poetry class. He quits his job and despite his wife urging him to retire, becomes a cycle courier. After the inevitable accident, he still refuses to stay at home and takes a job in the local supermarket. He works behind a counter, taking the used glass beer bottles and empty plastic water bottles, giving a receipt to the customers which they can redeem at the cashier. He begins to flirt with the customers and matchmake both for an old friend and for the man he works with. His own flirtations (and amusingly lurid dreams) almost get him into trouble with his wife, so he resolves to reignite the passion in his marriage by celebrating his wedding anniversary with a hot air balloon ride. As can be expected, things do not go completely to plan.
This is one great, sweet, funny, cute and nice movie! It's great both visually and storywise, leaving open enough space to keep wondering, but not leaving you with any questions. It's a movie full of life and air, without ever getting boring.
One to watch for sure!
8/10!

Btw, is there not something wrong in your title?

No, nothing wrong with the title...it's the forum's fault
