Naked Woman
XVII век. Инквизиция держит в страхе всю Европу. И простой люд и знать верят, что повсюду обитают ведьмы. Для скорого суда и расправы над колдуньями по городам и селам разъезжают жестокие мракобесы-инквизиторы. Не гнушаясь изощренными пытками и обманом, они повсюду устраивают «азартную» охоту на ведьм. В страшных мучениях жены оговаривают мужей, дети — отцов, среди всеобщего страха целые семьи идут на костер, лишь немногие решаются выступить против карающей длани святой церкви. В своей борьбе они могут полагаться на Бога. Но услышит ли Господь молитвы тех, над кем инквизиция уже занесла кровавый топор?
Detective Lieutenant Boruvka (Lubomír Lipský) is called to the State Scientific Library to investigate the loss of a precious manuscript, the Infernal Psalter of the Occult Sciences by Master Peregrinus from the eleventh century, written in a secret script which has only recently been deciphered by senior lecturer Zajíc (Josef Chvalina). Chaos is reigning in the labyrinth of passages and halls of the former monastery where the library is housed. In order to save space the director of the library has introduced a peculiar system. The books are arranged in the bookcases according to height and six girls dressed in black, the library assistants, are quite happy to cut volumes down to size in case of need. Boruvka refuses the case, since he is specialist in murders. He has to return to the investigation, however, when senior lecturer Zajíc disappears.
