Summary
In 1965, director Jindřich Polák and screenwriter Vratislav Blažek worked together on this East German co-production. It provided few hints of the future successes both men would achieve. The protagonist of the comedy story is a marriage counsellor, the doctor Pavel Novák – himself in a happy relationship with ice skater Eva. On the day of the couple’s second wedding anniversary, Eva mysteriously disappears. Gripped by jealousy, Pavel imagines all the different scenarios that might surround the vanishing of his wife... This light film is built upon bringing to life a series of jealous fantasies through a number of ice skating sequences, underscored by contemporary pop music numbers sung by Eva Pilarová, Waldemar Matuška and Karel Štědrý. Husband Pavel is portrayed by Jiří Lír, while Eva is performed by real-life figure skater Olga Divínová.
