Beschreibung
The incredible story of the brave woman Blanka Čílová (* September 27, 1928), who became involved in the anti-communist resistance in her youth, is based on authentic interviews and archival materials. Together with her husband Zdeněk, she was part of the Nové Město resistance group. In 1949, the entire group was arrested, her husband imprisoned, and Blanka became a single mother. After his release, Zdeněk suffered from prolonged health issues, and Blanka cared for him until 1969, when he died of esophageal cancer caused by radiation in uranium mines. This gripping story set against a socio-political backdrop expands the reader's awareness of the historical context of the second and third resistance movements.
