It was this collection of short films inspired by Jaroslav Hašek's humoristic stories, where budding director Oldřich Lipský applied his playful approach to narration for the first time. Even in the ideologically strict 1950s he managed to shoot an entertaining, apolitical film that formally anticipated his most popular works. (Summer Film School)
