Boccaccio's famous Decameron brings ten beautiful stories told to pass the time by those who escaped certain death in Florence when the plague spread in 1348. The four medieval tales have been adapted by director Zdeněk Zelenka as a television love series. The result is an entertaining comedy with an excellent cast... The story of two young couples who become friends for better or for worse and resolve their mutual affection in a peculiar way in the spirit of a well-known saying. An eye for an eye - this is the title of a love comedy based on Dekameron, which was adapted for television in 1991 by writer and director Zdeněk Zelenka. He made a hilarious story in which love and infidelity have the main say, and in which a possible tragedy is sparked by wisdom, wit and good will.
