TV adaptation of Vincent Šikula's novel "Ornament". The author, a little bit nostalgically, a little bit with ironic-critical detachment, drew his attention to a serious period of our modern history - the beginning of the fifties. The story of a somewhat unadorned, somewhat idealistic student of the philosophical faculty Matej Hoz and a young priest Jože Patúc, hiding from an unjust law, becomes an interesting testimony about a short period of the recent life of our society, but above all a testimony that no time can destroy the good and beautiful things that most people carry within themselves.
