Directed by Oldřich Lipský • 1971 • Czechoslovakia
Starring Lubomír Lipský, Jiřina Bohdalová, Iva Janžurová

Infused with an anarchic cartoon energy, this irresistibly silly, almost Dadaist black comedy traces the absurdities that arise when a mild-mannered schoolteacher named George Camel (Lubomír Lipský) comes into possession of a valuable check that is at the center of a feud between two ruthless gangs. As the bodies pile up, Camel himself is accused of the killings—and somewhat surprisingly finds that his newfound reputation as a serial killer may come with some advantages.
