In this psychological drama by Martin Frič the story of the main character, lieutenant Mareš, demonstrates the fates of many WWII veterans who were left with no place to go in the peace times. The cruel Protectorate took away their close ones from them, preventing the soldiers from picking up on their lives before the war. (Summer Film School)
