Young man in the prison is obsessed with a singer who is to perform in a new musical its director is currently auditioning for. He escapes and through complex and often very funny series of events ends up being the main star of the musical, only to be discovered by the police the day before the premiere...OK, enough spoilers! The story keeps going on... Lots of great dialogs, awesome music and singing, and ever-twisting story (plus, the parallels between the play's script and the real story) makes this one of the most enjoyable Czech movies I've seen in years (and I've seen many)! Definitely check it out if you like comedy, drama, musicals, and theater.

At the water sprite and water nymph school, classes proceed as planned until the water nymphs leave for a dance competition and the water sprites accompany them to cheer them on. Only Vrbata, a notorious troublemaker, remains at the school as punishment. While exploring the cabinet, he carelessly awakens an octopus with living water. Upon the school trip's return, the octopus manages to capture the headmaster and begins to threaten the entire school. At the same time, the vagrant Mikolášek breaks into the school, so the water sprites, water nymphs, and teaching staff must not only fight the sea monster but also solve the problem of how to get rid of him. Unfortunately, nothing goes according to plan, and the octopus gradually captures everyone except the clumsiest water nymph, Křehulová. The situation begins to look hopeless. Fortunately, Mikolášek comes up with a plan and, together with Křehulová, tries to bring it to a successful conclusion...
