A family film that tells the story of several forms of love today in a poetic, playful and humorous manner. It explores the sufferings of teenager Albert who is head over heels in – most pertinently unrequited – love with his best friend’s sister; the love between Albert’s parents, who perform magic shows and are going through a crisis of middle age; and parental love, when the slick charmer Bosák Jr. attempts to win the attention and affection of his father, a powerful hotelier. Albert and the others ultimately realise that one doesn’t need magic and spells to be happy but above all the courage to change things around oneself for the better. Naturally, however, that doesn’t mean that magic and sorcery don’t exist.
