Black comedy about a genius inventor and two young, smart and beautiful women. Both of them putting all their effort into getting the one man. This will inevitable lead to all sorts of mischief, crime and even a murder. This murder-comedy, shot at the dawn of normalization has intentionally broke off from any connection to the reality of its time. The director Zdeněk Podskalský has focused on creating intriguing story lines, revolving around the two endeavouring female characters who are fighting for the same man. Two competing parties are not only ready to kill the other, but also (if necessary) the potential groom. This film has enabled the members of the cast, composed mainly of the brightest stars of the Czech acting scene of that time, to show an incredible acting range, from the lightest comedy to the darkest cynical morbidity.
Two young men, indistinguishably alike, decide to swap. But with one a popular singer and the other a car mechanic, fitting into their new "life roles" is not easy. They experience more than one humorous situation and cause confusion. And how did it all start? Popular singer Vaclav Dubsky goes with his friend to meet his female fans. In a village inn, where he stops for lunch, he meets his perfect double - Joska, a car mechanic. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of this resemblance? Especially for the tired and bored Vasek, it's an opportunity to enjoy anonymity at least for a while. And so the young men swap...
Rock concerts used to be suspicious. They were supposed to attract all sorts of strange individuals who meant no good. In this case, it's a pair of escaped convicts who want to hide in the heat of the concert...

But just as he arrives, the local shoemaker Rambousek, a famous (and wealthy) naive painter, is murdered.
