Summary

The last film project in the filmography of experienced children’s film creator Josef Pinkava proved to be the Russian-Czech Cizím vstup povolen (Trespassers Not Prohibited), released in 1986. The protagonist is a Czech girl, Jana Koudelková, who visits Moscow with her parents. The Koudelkas are from Slušovice, where Jurij Koroljov has been on an internship. Thanks to his invitation, the Czech family finds itself in the Soviet metropolis. Jana even takes her little dog Markýz with her. A backstage visit at a real Russian circus, The Animal Circus of Vladimír Durov, however, is a far greater adventure for the little girl and her Muscovite friend Dimka. The starring roles in this uncomplicated picture are played by Jana Pálečníková (Jana) and Anton Samulejev (Dimka), while the parts of the heroine’s parents are taken by Eva Jakoubková and Miloslav Mejzlík.
