Quand les étoiles étaient rouges

The film captures the troubled historical period from the late 40s up to the beginning of occupation of Czechoslovakia by the Soviet Army in August 1968. The story of hesitant and shy Jožko Brezík reflects the life of the creators and victims of the rotten morals of the 50s which, after a short period of optimism and hope, returned in 1968.
