Diaries, correspondence and family film recordings reveal a unique view of the life and privacy of the citizens of the so-called Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia… Young documentarian Ondřej Veverka approached dozens of witnesses of the protectorate times and their descendants to share unique film recordings and written testimonies with him from that time. The result is a three-part documentary that provides a unique perspective on the protectorate. At that time, perhaps more than ever, amateur cameras noticed ordinary everyday things, small joys and ordinary life. Perhaps so that one can at least for a moment succumb to the illusion that the world is actually still in order. But soon tragedy entered these shots as well.
