Flower Buds (Czech: Poupata) is a 2011 Czech drama film written and directed by Zdeněk Jiráský.[1][2][3]
Plot
The film is about the Hrdina family, who live in a industrial Czech border town. Jarda Hrdina is a middle-aged railway signalman who is deep in debt from his addiction to slot machines. His wife Kamila, a cleaning lady, is focused on rehearsing a performance of the song "Poupata" ("Flower Buds"), twenty five years after she and her peers performed the routine in the Spartakiad gymnastics festival. Their son Honza, who grows cannabis in his basement, falls in love with a prostitute named Zuzana, and after unsuccessfully asking her out decides to purchase ownership of her. Their daughter Agáta, whose boyfriend Matěj becomes wheelchair bound after nearly freezing to death while drunk, is dealing with an unplanned pregnancy, and can only bring herself to tell her close friend Magda.
