The Magic Quill (2018) 6

Czech Republic | 2018 | 99 min.

People in the town of Pytlov, at the foot of Pervidle Hill, have no idea that all their sins are being catalogued by the local branch of Hell - written down by the Magic Quill. When it stops working, Lucifer entrusts the devil Boniface to deliver a new quill to the Pervidle Branch. He sets off for Pytlov, where a local crook steals the quill. Pytlov is ruled by the local rogues, layabouts, and crooks, who eventually manage to imprison the ruler of Hell. Boniface must now find it within himself to free both Pytlov and Lucifer, and win the heart of the beautiful Marketka.
