Those who aren't with me are against me: a provincial town doesn't waste any time in hunting for the accused in an abuse case. False testimony and prejudice provoke a nationwide uproar in which there is no space for discussion or neutrality. The opinions one is able to express at home and in public drift apart, whilst intimidation prevails over moral courage. And yet far away from this commotion coming generations build friendships.
Having previously enjoyed success in Cottbus with ATLANTIS, 2003 (FFC 2017), for which he was awarded with the Main Prize of the Short Film Competition, Michal Blaško returns with renewed proof that he refuses to shy away from broaching controversial political issues. DJ
