Sinopse
Fifty years ago an exceptional Czechoslovak movie called The Shop on Main Street, that won an Oscar award, was made. The author of movie after movie, Peter Zakuťanský, has went to Sabinov to revive movie locations and relive adventures of the locals from the time when original movie was shot. These locals in their movie characters reveal not only a great history, but also their own private stories - all the more urgent, the faster the filmstrips disappear from movie theatre circulation. In the background of these reconstructed events the second storyline of Zákuťanský's movie unfolds itself, it shows a story of digitization of town movie theatre Torysa, which serves as projection training center for the whole country, and further a story of its director, the fighter to the death.
