Obchod na Korze - CDmp3

An audiobook with a dramatized reading of the famous novella 'The Shop on Main Street' by Ladislav Grosman. Featuring Viktor Preiss, Jiří Vyorálek, Andrea Elsnerová, Zdenka Procházková, Jaroslav Plesl, and Petra Špalková. It is wartime, and in the middle of a small town in Eastern Slovakia, a mound of victory slowly rises to the sky, crowned with the eloquent slogan 'For God life - for the nation freedom.' A tragicomic story from the times of aryanization in clerofascist Slovakia, inspired by a true event, was first published by writer Ladislav Grosman as a short story in 1962. Three years later, he published it as a novella and collaborated with directors Ján Kadár and Elmar Klos on the screenplay for the film. The gripping film 'The Shop on Main Street' subsequently won, among many other awards, the very first Oscar for Czechoslovak cinema (in 1966). Although the film was soon, after 1968, put away in a vault for twenty years, Grosman's work ensured its immortality. Narrators: Andrea Elsnerová, Jaroslav Plesl, Viktor Preiss, Zdenka Procházková, Petra Špalková, Jiří Vyorálek.
