Sylvie marries an only child who is strongly emotionally attached to his mother. His mother, Alžběta, cannot imagine losing her son Hynek, a young doctor, or sharing him with his wife. Therefore, she first tries to prevent the marriage, and when she fails, she tries to break up her son's marriage. Sylvia, the daughter-in-law, experiences firsthand the struggle with her mother-in-law over her son and her husband. She naturally wonders whether a man who, at the age of 35, is unable to stand up to his mother deserves a wife or just pity...
