(Three documentary short stories from the Protectorate)
How do people respond in intense situations? What are the consequences of collaborating with occupiers or doing a deal with the devil? Our modern history isn’t solely paved with heroism, sacrifice and principle but also with personal failure, betrayal and collaboration. Three faces, three Czech stories: Gestapo officer Felkl from Bělá, parachutist Čurda from Hlína and Gestapo informer Bušta from Cerekev.
Presentation of the new book by Miloš Doležal. Also appearing will be psychologist Daniel Štrobl, who has worked with the Centre for Stress Research and been on a number of army missions.
Hynek Chmelař will read excerpts from the book.
