A film about young people seeking happiness. A light comedy depicting the small worries of ordinary people. The main characters, Peter and Michal, both grew up in shattered families; Mišo hardly knew his father, and Peter was devastated after his mother recently left her husband. The film opens with Michal getting a lesson from a couple of hooligans, while Peter is being dumped by his girlfriend, Danka. Michal has a younger sister, Veronika, the object of affection of the entire neighborhood, including Peter. Michal’s mother, Žofia is driven mad by her children and keeps herself busy dieting in a desperate attempt to win back her long-lost figure through meaningless starvation programs. The plot thickens as Peter and Michal come across Zoltán, a Hungarian tourist who has been robbed. “Big Respect” revolves around a couple of days spent in the company of young people who kill time indulging in pastimes.
