The presence of a relatively large American community in Prague is an unusual social phenomenon. A documentary film was made to capture the testimonies of thousands of Americans who came to Czechoslovakia (before the country was divided) after November 1989 with the intention of staying here for a longer or shorter period of time. The director selected eleven Americans, „nice guys“ of all ages and professions. They work here, they live ordinary lives in Prague, in smaller towns and villages. They come into contact with Czechs in schools, companies, institutions, shops, restaurants, the metro...The film gives a wonderful picture of the Czech towns in which these Americans live - Cheb, Prague, Hradec Kralove, Ostrava and others.
