We Have Our Film! Images of the Slovak State

"Although for decades it has been traditionally said that Slovak film was made in the atmosphere of the rebellion, it was a fabrication and an attempt to rewrite history. In reality, it was made under a totalitarian war regime, subject to the chauvinist policies of the government and overseen by the Propaganda Bureau." Petra Hanáková, film historian and curator, is the co-author of a retrospective of Slovak documentaries made in 1939-1945.
