Jáchyme, hoď ho do stroje

In the 1974 film Jáchyme, hoď ho do stroje (Joachim, throw it in the machine!), a sincere, but shy and distracted provincial young man, Frantisek Koudelka (Ludek Sobota) leaves his village to work in Prague as a mechanic. 

Before starting his journey he buys a computer made horoscope with biorhythm charts, marked according to his date of birth. There are precarious, unsuccessful and even critical days and a few successful days in his future. 

The clumsy luckless person Frantisek has finally a guidance for his life. The film is full of symbolism and many phrases spoken in the film have become mainstay quotes in Czech idiom.
