Three Steps from the Body

Directed by Svatopluk Innemann

With Karel Lamač, Truda Grosslichtová, Věra Skalská, František Paul and Antonín Holzinger

Tommy Fikejs and Ferda Říha, two perpetual students, are completely broke. They are up to their necks in debt, their landlady is kicking them out, and there is no hope of securing another loan. Tommy does have a wealthy uncle—an automotive tycoon—but the man refuses to be "touched" for money, whether by persuasion or coercion, despite Tommy bombarding him with pleading letters.
