A real event, only transferred from the French into the Czech setting, inspired Andrea Sedlácková to write her story about a plot planned by a husband and his friend against a high-standing woman politician. The marriage of a bankrupt businessman and his successful wife - a cabinet Minister - is going through a crisis. The husband wants a divorce, but she refuses all mention of this subject before the parliamentary elections to take place in two years' time. His worldly friend is to help the husband to resolve this situation; he promises to seduce his friend's wife, and the film shots of her "affair" are to force her into a divorce.
