Den, kdy unesli papeže(1995)

The news that frames the two days in which the whole story takes place is bad. At first glance, these don't seem like the happiest two days.

What's more, it's a comedy that finds strength in the hope that there is kindness and a deep desire for understanding and openness hidden in each of us. It's a story of our times (as the radio news reports quoted suggest), and yet it transcends our times; after all, it's not every day that the pope is kidnapped.
