Synopsis
Lenka runs out of gas on a deserted country road, and is picked up by environment minister Dohnal and his advertising executive pal Petr. They take her to a remote spot, rape her and knock her out. When she comes to, Lenka pretends not to remember what happened and prevails upon them to give her a ride home. Once there, she feeds them drugged beer and when they are out cold, castrates them. Both men hope surgery can restore their manhoods, but Dohnal leaves his in the family freezer where a visiting relative makes omelet out of them. Meanwhile, neither Mrs Dohnal nor Lenka's boyfriend are best pleased with Dohnal.
