Štěstí je krásná věc (2020)

In the heart of a quaint village, Cenda and Jana, an unemployed couple, find solace in their love for each other, despite their dire financial situation. Cenda's debts are piling up while his ailing father's life hangs in the balance. With no means to afford his father's life-saving operation, they seek help from their local pastor. Instead of monetary aid, they are given a blessed betting ticket, which miraculously lands them a colossal win of 176 million crowns. Suddenly, their lives are transformed. Their once humble existence is replaced by a whirlwind of riches they barely understand. Financial security, however, doesn't come without its challenges. Amidst whirlwind shopping sprees, lavish dinners in Prague, and impromptu car purchases, they stumble upon their old schoolmates who once tormented Cenda. The tables turn as their tormentors, now envious of their wealth, attempt to enter their lives. As their story spreads, the village is abuzz with whispers and greedy hands stretch out from every corner. Even Cenda's long-lost brother Marek reappears, pitching grand investment ideas. Overwhelmed, they invest millions in a seemingly profitable quarry, triggering a chain of events that send their lives spiraling. Cenda falls prey to the seductive traps laid by Sandra, a former classmate. The evidence of this entrapment lands in the hands of Jana, leading to a misunderstanding that sees Cenda ousted from their home. Left with nothing but a suitcase and a friendship with Patrik, a kind-hearted taxi driver, Cenda is left to confront the harsh realities of his newfound fortune. "Štěstí je krásná věc" is a captivating journey of love, luck, and the bitter-sweet taste of sudden wealth. It's a tale that explores how the greatest fortune often lies within the simplest joys of life.
