It was made in German-occupied Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The screenplay was based on a story by the retired German silent film actress Ossi Oswalda. The film's sets were designed by the art director Jan Zázvorka.
13 guests meet at the home of Mayor Bartoš. They are disturbed by the number, so they hope and wait for another guest to appear. A 14th guest does arrive, with the coincidental surname of Čtrnáctý ("Fourteenth"). Young man Pavel Čtrnáctý is attracted to the mayor's daughter, Ema. He cannot resist and kisses her. The girl suddenly becomes the subject of gossip.
