Pupendo is a 2003 Czech comedy drama film directed by Jan HÃ Âebejk.
Pupendo shows the difficulty of life in Czechoslovakia during the 1980s. Artist Bedà Âich Mára (Bolek Polivka) is unable to find much secure work due to his public antagonism toward the ruling Communist Party. He has a wife and two children. Life begins to change when art historian Alois Fábera (Jià Âi Pecha) begins working on a piece about Bedà Âich, leading to a job offer from a Party official. Things are looking up, until the wrong people hear portions of the historian's writing.
