Plot
Director Evald Schorm reflects on the changing political tides of his generation in this clear-eyed study of idealism and disillusionment. Jarda (Jan Kačer) is a passionate Communist worker fervently dedicated to the principles of his party. But as those around him grow increasingly disenchanted with the cause, he must confront a sobering realization: that everything he has fought for has been for nothing.
