Prague, 1938. The marriage of radio journalist Emil Vrbata and Jewish actress Hana is turned upside down by the Nazi occupation and the start of the war. Hana can’t work or live a normal life, and Emil enters the services of the German propaganda machine to try and save her. Yet in order to protect his beloved, he betrays love itself…. In his stylistically precise drama Marek Najbrt develops a bitterly sceptical reflection on the dark side of the Czech character.
