Czech Republic/UK/Denmark/2007/104 mins/subtitle/15. Dir: Jan Sverak. With Zdenek Sverak, Daniela Kolarva, Tatiana Vilhelmova.

From the director of Oscar-winning Kolya, comes this sophisticated, perceptive comedy. A warm-hearted, unpretentious tale of an ageing teacher who would rather resign than face the daily frustrations of the classroom. After a few hilarious false starts while finding himself a new job, he settles happily into the routine of dealing with the empty bottles returned to the local supermarket. He finds an interesting new world, full of small pleasures (such as his continuing erotic fantasies) from which his bemused wife is excluded. The biggest box-office success in the Czech Republic in 20 years.
