Producer: KF a.s. + UNO
Director: Dagmar Doubkova
Designer: Dagmar Doubkova

The film was shot for the UNO on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of launching the Woman's Year. Through a humorous exaggeration that also gives an impression of sadness, the film shows the practise of emancipation. It numbers the duties of an employed woman. The longing for a better life is reflected in a colourful dream in which the woman gets understanding and help from her husband. Is it really a dream not to be fulfilled?
