synopsis

A tourist guide to the easternmost region of Czechoslovakia, the film presents a catalogue of its beauty as well as its pitfalls. The tourist will get a glimpse of its peculiar, colourful folk costumes, cities of the east, not very rewarding in terms of tourist landmarks, churches whose architecture combines styles of both the East and the West, as well as the Polish-Czechoslovak border, “a border which is no bar to the friendship of both Slav countries.” This cinematic Lonely Planet is the best guide to your holiday in Carpathian Ruthenia for 1932!
