Beschreibung
The first authorized monograph of theater, film, and television actress Jaroslava Tvrzníková (1940). It captures her private, artistic, and civic life. After her first significant film role in the movie Robinsonka (1956), she had further acting opportunities and graduated from the Prague DAMU. She spent sixteen years engaged at the Prague National Theatre. However, after marrying actor Martin Štěpánek from the famous acting family, the young couple faced years of conflict with the normalization regime due to their political views and stances. Years of pressure from the authorities led to the decision to leave Czechoslovakia. How did they manage as actors in a foreign language environment? What feelings did they have when returning to their homeland after thirteen years? What price did they pay for their decision to live in a free country? The book attempts to answer not only these questions but also includes testimonies from Jaroslava Tvrzníková, as well as memories from family, friends, and acting colleagues.
