Saturnin (1994)
Saturnin is the butler of the young gentleman Jiří Oulický, who lacks determination and self-confidence. Saturnin has both to give away; he is determined to perform the assigned tasks under any circumstances and by any means. Thus Jiří finds himself in unthinkable situations, which would not have occurred at all without Saturnin. But under the influence of his butler, Jiří gradually transforms into a real man, walking through social life with confidence and charm.
