Sex in Brno is a Czech comedy film from 2003.
action
The film is set in Brno (Czech: Brno). At a sports festival, the mentally retarded Stanislav fell in love with the equally retarded Olga. You are over 20 years old and have not had any sexual experience in your life. After a lively correspondence, Olga invites Stanislav to her hometown of Brno. Stanislav is being prepared for his first night of love by his brother. Olga's neighbors also play a major role in the success of the first meeting of the two. They are not stingy on advice. However, Olga has one problem: her mother. Olga is just as popular with the neighborhood as her mother is unpopular. For her first romantic evening, Olga has chosen a day on which her mother should be absent. However, this returns unexpectedly. Olga still does not want to postpone the evening and numbs her mother with sleeping pills. She beds them for the night in the pantry of the apartment.
Stanislav is extremely nervous before his first love affair. The brother takes him to Brno and says goodbye to Olga on the doorstep. After Olga introduced him to friends in a neighboring apartment, they both go to Olga's apartment for dinner. Olga offers Stanislav to stay the night. Stanislav is overwhelmed by his joy as well as his nervousness about it. The night of love begins hesitantly, but develops into a tender and exuberant first sexual experience for the young couple. Olga immediately informs the friends about the successful first time. Stanislav stays behind for a moment and is watched through the keyhole by the awakened mother. When Olga returns, her mother sounds the alarm. Olga and Stanislav panic and Stanislav flees the apartment. He runs his longest and fastest long-distance run, but in the end decides to return to Olga.
In addition to the central love story between Olga and Stanislav, the film tells the story of other couples that night in Brno. The story of an aging provincial actor who is a local notoriety but never made the leap to Prague. He meets a university professor who realizes that theory and practice can be far apart in love life. Another couple consists of a girl who only gets to know problematic men and who runs into a masochist that night. There are also two young men who have been friends since they were young and who are dying to meet a woman. But they have failed for years. That night they learn that they are more than just friends and that they find the love they are looking for in their own friendship.

Reviews
“ After a series of flat gags, which are almost exclusively in the private sphere and bypass social references, the film then finds the desired tragicomic compression in the last third, which includes questions about the relationship between sex and love and the meaning of life. "
“ Sex in Brno is shot in nostalgic black and white, a lovable romantic comedy about the trials and tribulations of love during a night in the second largest Czech city of Brno .”
