Forced to abandon rowing during a bout of glandular fever, he joined the Cambridge Footlights, a university dramatic club that has produced many well-known actors and comedians. There he met Emma Thompson, with whom he had a romantic relationship, which later ended yet they remain good friends. She introduced him to his future comedy partner, Stephen Fry.

This is the story of the best director in the world, who had to meet 9 women during his stay in his homeland to find love finally. David Absolon is a very successful man, he has so many film awards at home that we can't count them, but he would trade them all for love. When he suddenly has some free time, he decides to travel to his native country for a while and first spends time with his parents in the capital, Prague, and then goes to the small town in the countryside where he grew up, Bystřice. Even though he gradually becomes the center of attention of several women, he still feels lonely and dreams of love. Each of these women (Evelýna, Lucie, Tatiana, Nora, Sofie, Izabela, Mariána, Eleanora, Šarlota) always becomes just a momentary romance, just another affair, but love is hard to find. The problem with the search is that, as they say, there is always darkness under the light, and so David keeps getting the idea that his soulmate is the girl from the neighborhood, with whom he is getting closer and closer. Another problem is the tabloid photographer who is stalking him and filming his stay in the Czech Republic.
