Mouřínov is a little Moravian village in the middle of nowhere. It is so remote that even the road ends there. And because its inhabitants long to be on a thoroughfare, they have to come up with a plan to obtain a rather large amount of asphalt to extend the road. Their key to success is meant to be Franta, an introvert, wiseacre and muddlehead. But above all the national deer-calling champion. And so their only chance of getting their dreamt-of road is to hold the European championship in their village with the prime minister as a guest. The mayor prepares his diplomatic mission and Franta falls in love, but nothing is easy and the vision of the new road remains uncertain. Especially when Franta refuses to compete, someone damages the backstage area and Mrs. Csáková isn’t answering her phone…
