Anti-German student demonstrations as part of the anniversary of the founding of the republic were bloodily suppressed by the Nazi authorities, and student Jan Opletal and bakery worker Václav Sedlácek paid for their brave protest with their lives.

Dvojí tváre

Come the 1950's, most people put on their second face - a mask under which some remain silent, others quietly resist, and others use it as a completely new face. The era of two faces has begun, which will last for a long time. However, in 1968 there was a relative half-life, and in its tragic conclusion, the framework of stories from the life of Barrand's Bohemia takes place.
