Adam a Eva did not share just the same rib, but many other things. That made them different for example from the monkeys. There is an erotic in human history from very beginning and it didn´t miss Slovakia, too. After 1989, after hundred years after end of monarchy and after two dictatures we have got a freedom to speak about it. And freedom to do erotic bussines, too. Main line of the movie is a story of first ever Sex shop in Slovakia. Karol Raffay started his own bussines after november revolution in 1989. Raffay and his family sex-bussines got through the same process as a democratisation in Slovakia. Movie is succesfully looking for the parallels beetwen those two. It speaks about shop, customers, sexual history of country with big will and small selfconfidence. It shows sexual life of Slovaks mixed with social political and other changes. Slovak citizen can join the democratic elections as he can enter legal Sex Shop for the first time, too. Both of freedoms make a problems to him. Movie uses a "pink glases" to talk about slovak sexuality and about explanation of erotic in Slovakia in the story of Sex shop, from its birth up to present. Guiders with the movie are except owner of shop and his employers also widely respected specialists: sexuologist and politic reporter. The whole view is completed with citizens opinions and lot of archive TV materials. Our society basically based on seriously catolic population has problem with public expresion of its opinions. On the orher side, daily newspapers bring lot of exclusive and controversional news mostly about celebritie´s erotic life. It is beautifull to see the changing of nation, which become a freedom and has to learn how to use with it. Do we percept society in intimate underwear? Is it exciting? (Verleiher-Text)

Deutsch Eine Doku-Sonde in das Leben / die Charaktere einer Familie, die einen Sexshop betreibt, Pornofilme dreht usw. Am Anfang macht sich der Film über die "Einfachheit" und die "kommerzielle Oberflächlichkeit" der Protagonisten ein wenig lustig und stellt sie als komische Figuren dar. Allmählich findet er aber zu ihnen einen Weg und entdeckt in ihnen Menschlichkeit und Ehrlichkeit. Es sind Menschen aus Fleisch und Blut, mit Problemen und Ansichten, die Ihre Nachbarn links und rechts auch haben. Menschen, die einfach versuchen, sich in der Zeit durchzusetzen, in der sie geboren wurden. Ein angenehmes, schlaues Porträt des Subjektes, das viele Leute ohne nähere Kenntnisse verachten werden. Und auch ein kleiner Spiegel der Entwicklung der slowakischen Politik seit dem Fall des Kommunismus bis in die Gegenwart, die den Erfolg oder Misserfolg des "Business" der Protagonisten stark beeinflusst hat.
