Description
F.L. Vek 4x DVD
Synopsis
Television adaptation of Alois Jirásek's extensive novel from the era of our national revival is the work of author Otto Zelenka, director František Filip, and a long list of other notable artists. The story delves into the history of a humbled and oppressed nation in search of its lost identity, gaining new significance in the wake of the Warsaw Pact invasion. Viewers rightly discovered parallels with their own experiences, making any mention of national self-awareness and the spiritual strength of faith unacceptable to censors. During its premiere in 1971, the final episode of F. L. Věk was prohibited from airing. It wasn't until after 1989 that the series could be shown in its original form, allowing audiences to revisit this powerful narrative.
