Million (2025)
After his wife’s death, 80‑year‑old Vavřinec Novotný feels alone and estranged from his sprawling family. He sells the family estate (Slánská hora) and announces a wild contest: whichever of his children becomes a parent first will inherit one million euros. His children and grandchildren — including a debt‑ridden restaurateur/MMA hopeful, a career‑focused singer granddaughter, and a gay grandson who longs for a family — launch into a frantic, absurd competition full of secrets, desperation and ambition. As the race unfolds, long‑buried tensions are exposed and the family learns what really matters: money or love and connection.
