Summary

Director Jaromír Borek capped off a career of more than 20 years with the story of a five-year-old boy allergic to bee stings. General practitioner Vrba has his own method for dealing with such cases – a blood transfusion directly from a beekeeper who has experienced many bee stings over the years. But tracking down such a donor for the heavily traumatised youngster is no easy feat. The police service thus joins forces with doctors to help save the child’s life... The drama chiefly plays out in a hospital. It is based on a true story, which occurred in the former East Germany. The tense script, written by Pavel Hajný, also showcases the talents of actor Oldřich Vlach, largely known to audiences through his television roles. This 1986 movie features Vlach as a physician battling to save five-year-old Péťu.
