The five-year relationship of elder Michal and Veronika has come to a crossroad. While he inwardly thinks about children and family, she feels she has not experienced much yet and wants to have fun. They live next to each other without actually being together. Under the pressure of fights and fear from break-up, Michal comes up with a mysterious holiday for Veronika. But since the very beginning, nothing is like it was prepared by careful Michal and Veronika shows her disappointment. The tour around Scandinavia and the situations in which it places them holds up a mirror to them and their cohabitation. Everything seems to confirm that they should not be together anymore. Meeting Šimon, and adventurer and thief travelling all the time, gives unexpected reflection to their lives and relationship and moves them further. (official distributor synopsis)

Interesting idea, which is that. But I myself have traveled in a similar way and I know from the very essence that such mistakes in preparing for such a trip, which that couple made, simply do not happen. In addition, the behavior between them, it seemed downright disgusting to me. However, it was part of the movie and I have to take it that way. The idea still did its job, and it made me watch the movie until the end. Even though at times it looked like some home video they shot during one...oh, yeah, some trip.

I can't help it, but Kristýna Nováková-Fuitová bothered me so much here that I simply didn't enjoy the movie because of her. Moreover, not much happens in it, and I was hoping the camera would explore somewhere. There are some beautiful locations, though otherwise, it's just a film about finding yourself, lying, and not finding your way. It's not too little, but it's not too much either.
