The movie's main storyline follows the life of Otรญk, a young man, in a tight-knit village community. The sweet-tempered Otรญk works as an assistant truck driver with Mr. Pรกvek, his older colleague and practical-minded neighbor. Pรกvek's family takes care of Otรญk, whose parents are dead. However, the two coworkers become at odds over Otรญk's inability to perform even the simplest tasks. Pรกvek demands that Otรญk be transferred to assist another driver, who happens to be a choleric and suspicious man named Turek (Turk in Czech). Rather than work with Turek, Otรญk decides to accept an offer of employment in Prague, but finds he does not fit in to the city life. After discovering that the transfer of Otรญk to Prague was a trick by a crooked politician to get a deal on Otรญk's large inherited house, Pรกvek agrees to give Otรญk a second chance and retrieves him from the city to resume their work together.
