A humorous novel from the environment of a Czech company offering management advice for marketing, human resources, logistics, manufacturing, finance, etc., which makes fun of incompetence, laziness and other disasters, which we all know too well. The management and the employees cannot communicate with each other, and most of the people don’t know what to do. Although the clients think that everyone at the branch is an expert, the opposite is true. But for some strange reason, no client will come to it. Additionally, for their ridiculous advice they charge huge amounts of money. In the firm there are unbelievably large piles of administration, bullying and spying on employees.

With his wife Christina, whom he married when he was twenty-one and who was at the time twenty kilos lighter, he has two children. Their relationship, which slowly ceases to work, enters Olga, who is only two years younger and is the head of the Center at which Albert works.

In the picturesque Czech town of Klídek there is the smallest branch of the Family Insurance Company Šťovíček. One summer Monday morning, Jarmila Rychlá goes to work. She has been working at this branch for ten years, so she thinks there won’t be many surprises before her retirement. This will change in a few minutes when she sees a new logo on her branch – IP INSURANCE House. The Family Insurance Company Šťovíček was bought by a large American insurance company, which she will learn in a few minutes from the new management that was sent to the branch from the Czech headquarters. There is young dynamic Davy Mazaný, MBA, who brings along with him two of his trusted workers. Mrs. Rychlá as well as her long-time colleague and former head of the branch, Růžena Klidná, are entering a new era. They have to undergo new training to learn new progressive sales skills. Only then this small branch can open to the first client.

Pavel Zabloudil gets into the town accidentally when his car navigation breaks. When he sees the shiny brand new signboard of this world-famous insurance company, he decides to pay them a visit. But he has no idea what he’s got into and what is awaiting him at the branch. Can he escape from the clutches of internationally trained insurance professionals and at what price?

This satirical black comedy shows with irony and humor the principle of financial institutions of today – getting the client’s money in the first place.

Cast: 3 men, 5 women

The plot of this comedy, which was written for the Artur Theater, takes place in Dr. Flojd’s psychiatric office and at the local bistro operated by Mrs. Kubíčková in front of the office, and which also serves as a patient waiting room.

Mrs. Kubíčková likes Dr. Flojd ever since he started at his office, which was about six months ago. Of course, being a single divorcee, she misses the company of a man for some time. Fjord is divorced but loves his independence as well as beautiful young twenty-year-old girls, though with one of them, with Lenka, he would like to break up. Kubíčková has been thinking for a long time about how to tell him about her intentions, and the fact that she is not more decisive worries her. Meanwhile, five patients come one by one to the office: Local politician JUDr. Troufalý, suffering from paranoia, then there is Vanda Vnadná, a credit line and credit card dealer, deeply suffering from the trauma of her husband’s infidelity. The third patient is a promiscuous nymph, post woman Sandra, the fourth is former top hockey player René, who does not know what to do in his free time after his career ended, and there is a recent reality show winner, Tomy, suffering from depression, because the media has lost interest and nobody cares about him now.

All of these patients keep coming to the office, but before their sessions they meet with Kubíčková on regular basis, who offers them not only her good coffee, but also a kind word of wisdom of an experienced woman.

Will Kubíčková finally let Flojda know about her feelings for him? Can Flojd pull away from Lenka, who cannot live without him, as he doesn’t like her putting restrictions on him? And how about all of Flojda’s patients? Will they overcome their depression, phobias, and vice?

This sitcom shows with humor and irony intertwined interpersonal relationships as well as mental problems of our civilization that our ancestors did not know at all, and which are sometimes insurmountable obstacles for some of us.
