The World Where One Goes Begging (1938)
Directed by Miroslav Cikán
Overview
The smooth narration, corresponding to the requirements of a light comedy, develops the smiling and optimistic story of the “one-armed” beggar Dostál, who earned enough money with his excellent begging skills to buy a nice house, become a respectable master of the house, and save the impoverished lawyer Neprosil from poverty, who he contributed regularly to him when he was still well off. He also wanted to get him together with his pretty ward Zorka, for whom he said he would be an ideal husband, but the young people were able to do that by themselves and without his clumsy help, or rather despite his rather ineffective help… The film was shown at the VI. IFF in Venice in 1938.
Length 78 minutes
