Zdenek Sverak, one of the most interesting contemporary writers, in the tragicomedy Co je vám, doktore? wrote the role of the protagonist for himself - an idealistic, humble man who uses a humorous outlook to compensate for his dissatisfaction with external realities. However, as the problems of the 40-year-old dentist, Burda, exacerbate, he is moved to revolt against his current way of life. The desire to live a simple life in the countryside, leads the technophobic hero to move from the big city to the mountains in the company of a new, younger woman, whose outlook means she is more suited to him than his present wife. But this idealistic escape to the "purity" of nature ends in a realistic fashion - with a return to the city.
