"A documentary anatomy of mass murder for one monitor and 34 talking heads." These are the words the filmmakers use in the credits to describe their project, which thematises the execution of more than 260 Carpathian Germans, Hungarians and Slovaks by Czechoslovak army soldiers near Přerov in June 1945. The “massacre at Přerov” is made present through a minimalist dramatisation of the interrogation footage of direct participants, eyewitnesses, and others. It is as if the characters of ancient theatre were entering the Zoom “stage” and delivering a tragic message of fear, hatred and disinterest across the chasm of time.

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
