Baseado em uma história real. Em 1899, uma menina é brutalmente assassinada numa aldeia no interior. Num clima de crescente antissemitismo, um jovem judeu chamado Leopold Hilsner é preso.
The title "All My Good Countrymen" is not without irony as this epic tale of Czech village life from shortly after the end of the Second World War concentrates on the activities of a group of friends who are not beyond reproach in siding with a politically corrupt regime for material advancement. Are these the "good countrymen" of the title or does it refer to the rest of the village who scorn these petty authority figure with silent contempt?
