A timely metaphor for failing democracy, THE OWNERS takes a seriocomic look at the most local form of self-governance: the co-op apartment building meeting. It includes a curious cast of characters, all of whom own apartments in the same building in Prague, as they attempt to tolerate each other's presence long enough to make some important decisions about the building's future. Mrs. Zahrdkov wants to save the old crumbling house she shares with other owners of the flats located in it. She might find supporters for her plan in young newlyweds with their idealistic enthusiasm, who have just moved in and are astonished by the co-owners' inability to agree on anything. Mrs. Zahrdkov wants to save the old crumbling house she shares with other owners of the flats located in it. She might find supporters for her plan in young newlyweds with their idealistic enthusiasm, who have just moved in and are astonished by the co-owners' inability to agree on anything. Mrs. Roubckov vigilantly controls the proper course of the meeting, not allowing the slightest deviation from the rules; Mrs. Prochzkov and her proclaimed business partner Mr. Novak are looking for ways to increase the value of their property, including by subletting an apartment to African students; Mr. Nitransk tries to get hold of the attic to expand his flat; and frustrated Mr. Kubt sabotages any decision.
