Description
Farewell Waltz by Milan Kundera is a comedy that unfolds with increasing speed over five madcap days. A celebrated jazz trumpeter receives a phone call from a young nurse he spent a brief night with at a fertility spa, informing him she's pregnant and believes he's the father.
The story begins as the nurse starts to prepare for her life with their unborn child, while Klima tries to navigate his unexpected situation. As the days pass, the comedy escalates into chaos, revealing the complexities of human relationships and the consequences of impulsive decisions.
