Description
An extraordinary story of unbreakable love for the homeland and a heroic struggle against human envy and blind desire for others' possessions. A completely unique testimony about the Zík family farm unfolds against the backdrop of the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the birth of the Czechoslovak Republic, the First and Second World Wars, and last but not least, the totalitarian communist regime after 1948 up to the present day. Despite all the adversities, the descendants of František Zíka ultimately managed to successfully farm their estate again, mainly thanks to their indomitable faith, unwavering conviction in their truth, and incredibly hard work, often at the highest cost – the cost of blood and human lives. The farm is a symbol of human determination to fight in difficult times for their fate, the right to freedom, and to defend their property often literally with their own hands.
