The film is a humorous exploration of married life, exaggerating the image of a "tired" sex life of a middle-aged couple. The search for the reasons behind his workaholic partner's lack of interest in marital sex leads him to believe that she is unsatisfied with sex with him for one reason only: he allegedly has a small penis. While comparing the size of his penis with his friend Boris, he is caught by his wife Vlaďka, who becomes convinced that her husband Leon is having an affair with his friend. At the same time, Leon envies the rich sex life of his neighbor Tomáš, who works as a television producer, filming journalistic reports on fraud and corruption, with Vlaďka as his assistant. Leon's brother-in-law Evžen is a member of a religious sect and tries to recruit Leon, but Leon resists. The story unfolds against a backdrop of misunderstandings arising from unclear information and constructions created by the individual characters...

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
