Helena Altmanová is a likable high school French and literature teacher, whose healthy, light-hearted attitude has gained her popularity among teachers and students alike. Her personal life, however, has big surprises in store for her. Her extended family provides a wealth of opportunity for surprises. Life in the same apartment with her ex-husband, the successful writer Karel, problems with her widowed sister Kristýna, her son Adam’s marital troubles, and grandmother Alžběta’s new-found love all keep Helena so busy that she doesn’t have time for her own life. And yet one day, just as she has all but given up on her dreams, something happens. Under tension-filled circumstances, Helena meets František, an emergency services doctor, and falls head over heels in love! This marks the beginning of a stormy, passion-filled story about breaking up and making up, in which the two love birds complicate relationships, whether on purpose or by mistake, with their partners and other family members.
