The Delayed Exit
Opožděný východ, Czech Republic, 56 min, History, Politics
While Prague resonated with freedom and hope immediately following 17 November 1989, the communists in northern Moravia didn’t want to relinquish power so easily. The steel heart of the country – Ostrava was seen as a communist stronghold. This documentary is about how the Velvet Revolution gathered momentum in this area.
