Moře na dvoře

Josef, the protagonist, is a dedicated violin maker who treasures his craft and the happiness it brings to others. He spends most of his time in his workshop located in the courtyard of a tenement house, where he has created his own version of the sea—a puddle he protects for the local birds. The film delves into themes of solitude and unrequited love, as Josef harbors feelings for his neighbor Anežka while enjoying the companionship of his dog Pampeliška.

The narrative also highlights his friendship with Václav, a charming piano tuner, which adds another layer to the story. The film’s blend of drama and comedy invites viewers to reflect on the small joys in life, making it a unique entry in contemporary cinema. With a talented cast including Ondřej Vetchý and Linda Rybová, Moře na dvoře offers a fresh perspective on everyday experiences.
