It's Better to Be Healthy and Wealthy than Poor and Sick

1992 · Released · 108 min

Two young women meet at one of the public meetings. They both want to realize their womanhood, get married and have children, which seems almost impossible in a politicized time. In an effort to forget their past, marked by politics, in fear of misery, together they embark on an uncertain path of business. Their desire to get rich puts them in various comic and dramatic situations. And so they buy and sell holy and sinful pictures, video cameras, butter, grenades, and finally their bodies. When they manage to get the first million, emigrant Robert, a former Nonin fiancé, appears in their richly furnished apartment. The adventurous journey of business thus takes on a more complex form, the presence of a man has a destructive effect on the inseparable friendship of both women.
