Where's the Truth?

Pavel Koutecký / Czech Republic / 1999 / The film already had its Czech Premiere / 57 min.


synopsis

Double nationalization and triple totalitarianism surround the lives of two Czech Jews who found a new home in Chile during World War II. A capitalist and a communist find themselves in a fictional dispute over the true image of totalitarianism. But this lies beyond the historical experience of the individual, in the joint preparation of the Chilean production of Brundibár.
