The film begins in 1988 as the Soviet bloc is beginning to disintegrate. František Louka, a middle-aged Czech man dedicated to bachelorhood and the pursuit of women, is a concert cellist struggling to eke out a living by playing funerals at the Prague crematorium. He has lost his previous job at the Czech Philharmonic, having been half-accidentally blacklisted as "politically unreliable" by the authorities. A friend offers him a chance to earn a great deal of money through a sham marriage to a Russian woman to enable her to stay in Czechoslovakia. The woman then uses her new citizenship to emigrate to West Germany, where her boyfriend lives.

In the near future, a technology enabling time travel has been developed and is now in commercial use. A group of aging former Nazis conspires to alter the results of the Second World War by traveling back in time and supplying Adolf Hitler with a hydrogen bomb. To this end, they bribe the corrupt time machine pilot Karel, who agrees to assist them. On the day of the scheduled journey, Karel chokes on a croissant and dies. His identical twin brother, Jan, cannot bring himself to tell Karel's fiancée Eva and begins to impersonate Karel. He is also later mistaken for Karel by the Nazis and stumbles along with their plot. Having been a designer of the rocket-ship time machine, he is able to pilot the ship and take them all back in time. When he realizes the nature of the Nazis' plans, Jan resolves to prevent their success. After triggering several paradoxes by travelling back and forth in time, he manages to defeat the Nazis and resolve the consequences of his twin's death.

L’ingénieur Jindřich Beránek travaille au sein de la société Elektrojeřáby alors que sa femme Růžena, autoritaire et énergique, voire tyrannique, travaille dans un institut de recherche. La professeure Beránková invente ainsi un procédé qui supprime les rêves désagréables. Elle reproduit l’expérience avec une vache au cours d’une conférence, qui voit disparaitre un taon du rêve de la vache (les rêves étant retransmis… sur un écran de télévision). Mais le taon réapparait alors dans la salle, et échappe à l’attention des protagonistes. Jindřich Beránek trouve quant à lui une série de bandes dessinées, où la ravissante héroïne Jessie échappe à ses poursuivants en utilisant des gants anti-gravité. L’idée lui vient alors de mettre au point un procédé identique.
