Screening of the Czech film Bet on Friendship

The Czech comedy Bet on Friendship returns to the halls of the Tel Aviv Cinematheque. The film was previously part of the Czech Film Week festival in August. Now Israeli audiences can look forward to seeing it again.

The film Bet on Friendship was directed by Patrik Hartl and is based on his successful book of the same name. Four friends declare war against testicles shrinking and midlife crisis by taking on daring challenges. The first task is to strip naked in a public place. Hartl, as the author of the book and the film, has made some changes, so there are a few surprises waiting for book lovers in the movie. The main characters of the four friends are played by Martin Pechlát, who stars as Prvok, David Švehlík who plays Shampoo, Hynek Čermák as Dot, and Martin Hofmann stars as Karel.

Synopsis

One of them has a family, the second one is famous, the third one wealthy and the last one strong. But none of them are happy. The bittersweet comedy Bet on Friendship is about four friends who decide to get out of the rut and make an insane bet. The crazy challenges they impose on themselves are meant to help the men through their mid-life crisis. But sometimes they just complicate things.
