Prvá noc pri mŕtvej

Television adaptation of a short story by Czech journalist and novelist Jakub Arbes. The depiction of love and death brings a suggestive story about jealousy, a destructive passion that becomes self-destructive as well. Elizabeth and Maria, two inseparable friends from boarding school, at one point both fall in love with a young student. The feelings of one are reciprocated; the other drops out. Unable to forgive this double betrayal, she fanatically sets her sights on destroying her rival's happiness.
