Description
Seven Days of Sin / 7 dni hrichu
Synopsis
Sudetenland, a traumatic point in modern Czech history, a place where the relationships between Czechs and Germans were shaped for centuries. It became a battleground during World War II, with the second fighting against the first and vice versa. Czech forester Jan Olšan desperately searches for his German wife Agnes, who mysteriously disappeared during the tumultuous days of May 1945. Unbeknownst to Olšan, Agnes has become a troublesome witness, threatening the power interests of a certain group of people. As the fascists flee, seeking mainly food in the region under Kralický Sněžník, Czechs organize expeditions for material wealth, colonizing abandoned German homes. Violence becomes an everyday occurrence, with the wild expulsion overlooked and murder becoming the most effective solution to any problem. Hotelier Brachtl, who hosted fascists throughout the war, leads the Revolutionary Guard, Olšan's cousin Přikryl maneuvers as the chairman of the District National Committee, and war-weary Major Uvarov insists strictly on justice and human rights, regardless of anyone's identity. Can one maintain honor and a clear conscience during these hectic days, when all human filth is stirred up? And is it possible to save one childless marriage, which was already in ruins anyway?
