What if the events in a key era in our history were actually completely different than what our history textbooks try to tell us? What if Master Jan Hus didn't even get warm in Constance, let alone burn up? What if Jan Žižka had more than one healthy eye? This animated comedy from director Pavel Koutský playfully breaks the myths about the Hussite era as the pedestal of history is occupied not by preachers and military leaders but by two unbelievable scatterbrains, who become the heroes of their time against their will. Čeněk of Wartenberg, the highest Bohemian burgrave, chooses them as ideal pawns for his refined game of chess, deftly manoeuvring between the rulers Wenceslaus IV and Sigismund. Mlhoš and Záboj are not capable of fulfilling even the tiniest of tasks, which they compensate through their typical Czech cunning and their art for madcap improvisation, ultimately influencing the course and the outcome of the Hussite Wars.
