Seven mischievous etudes from the fourth year of FAMU students. Insights, news, and micro-stories are complemented by ironic commentary of the Irregular Number One newspaper. The transition of each part is a camera depicted as a firearm fed by a machine gun belt instead of a film belt. The cadence of the firing of the cartridge-stories leads up to the warming up of the "gun". Imaginative, ironic and dadaist student piece by well-known directors such as Jiří Menzel, Věra Chytilová, Pavel Mertl, Jan Schmidt, Evald Schorm, Jiří Hraběta and Karel Němec.
