Synopsis
As a form of punishment for their counterrevolutionary actions, a motley crew of renegades are sentenced to work at a junkyard, an unusual form of ostracism oriented towards their reeducation. This satire of whimsical tone was censored by the Czechoslovakian regime and did not premiere until the fall of the Iron Curtain.
