The film reflects one of the painful parts of Czech history – the post-war resettlement of the borderlands. It centres around a group of people who move to an ostensibly pastoral village. The story is enriched with a criminal case which finally cements the whole community. The film has a distinct visual and acting authenticity. (Summer Film School)
