Overview
A pensioner Petr Černý runs an amateur internet TV and twice a week he broadcasts conspiracy and anti-immigration news. During seven years of his broadcasting he has become an important spokesperson of the part of the society. At the same time, Petr Černý is also a proponent of cosmic mysticism and last but not least a generous person with deep human solidarity. Is it possible to understand a person who cosmically stays on top of things but at the same time refuses the changes that are happening in the current world, and not to make a fool out of him?
