Escapes Home

The three main characters are Michal, an airplane mechanic, Marie, a fashion designer, and ten-year-old Honzik, who form a seemingly happy, well-adjusted family. Michal goes out with his son to fly aeronautical models, while his mother works on her designs and they spend weekends together at the cottage by the pond. However, the first moments of unrest, caused mainly by the workload of the ambitious Marie, start to creep into the peaceful relationship. She is currently preparing the costumes for a stage play. It is her first job for the theatre and since she wants to make a name for herself in this field, the result is important to her. She finds it hard to bear that her designs have not been received with enthusiasm, and she is slowly starting to get into a time crunch.
