The audience will be among the first to see these materials first-hand which coincidentally happens exactly 30 years after the first publication of the series. Jacques Rupnik will explain the difficulties he encountered while shooting the series and tell the audience about the attitude of the Communist regimes towards people coming from the “other” Europe to shoot films here
