Краткое содержание
The desire for freedom during the period of “normalisation” in Czechoslovakia led to the creation of a group of individuals who professed a deep inclination towards the principles of the underground movement. After many years they are unable to face their mutual suspicions of betrayal in the form of cooperation with the state-security police. The memory of their tragically departed guru, philosopher and poet, Marcel Strýko, drifts throughout their story. In an effort to come to terms with the past, an old companion from Prague organises a revival concert in a Gothic cathedral. Will these freethinking members manage to achieve a truce?
Чтобы остановить двойного агента, продажного сотрудника КГБ, бывшего генерала советских войск, снабжающего оружием террориста и наркобарона в Афганистане, агент 007 будет следовать за ним и побывает в скалах Гибралтара, в Чехословацком концертном зале, в Танжере и даже в той части Афганистана, где вовсю идут бои.
27 мая 1942 года. Чехословакия оккупирована нацистами. В Праге высокопоставленный нацист Рейнхард Гейдрих, назначенный рейхспротектором, собирает самых известных горожан и выражает неудовольствие актами саботажа на фабрика и заводах. Гейдрих считает, что чешские рабочие не просто саботируют жизненно важное производство на заводах «Шкода», но и призывают к сопротивлению, выпуская антифашистские листовки. Если уровень производства не повысится, будут приняты самые строгие меры, и для устрашения будут проведены показательные расстрелы саботажников на заводской площади. Почти сразу же после собрания Гейдриха убивают. Для чехов смерть Гейдриха становится символом надежды на освобождение от фашистского гнета. Озлобленные гибелью германского наместника нацисты требуют от населения выдать убийц, гестапо начинает брать в заложники сотни невинных граждан, узников расстреливают по одному. Требование фашистов одно: выдать убийц Гейдриха…

On 26 September 1928, Karel Capek and President T.G. Masaryk meet in the gardens of Topolcianky castle to decide about the fate of their joint literary work. Their fiction film dialogue is based on quotes from a future book and their mutual correspondence, considerably freeing the original format of literary conversation from binding conventions. Capek and Masaryk reproach and offend each other, but they also ask key personal questions and questions about the social functions of a writer and politician respectively. "It's a film about two extraordinary men; it's about the fact that emotions can be sometimes more powerful than ideas even in such exceptional people.

"Using the same, three times repeating dialogue – dramatic conversation between man and woman – Jerzy Skolimowski from Poland, Slovak director Peter Solan and Czech director Zbynìk Brynych shot three different stories. The result was an extraordinary experiment in the world cinema, which we can call an insight in the relationships of men and women of different age groups, an analysis of love and marriage of those who are at the beginning, in the middle or going towards the end of their life."
What would your family reminiscences about dad sound like if he had been an early supporter of Hitler’s, a leader of the notorious SA and the Third Reich’s minister in charge of Slovakia, including its Final Solution? Executed as a war criminal in 1947, Hanns Ludin left behind a grieving widow and six young children, the youngest of whom became a filmmaker. It's a fascinating, maddening, sometimes even humorous look at what the director calls "a typical German story." (Film Forum)
