An emotional tale of two lovers trapped in the march of history. Set in the aftermath of World War II, the film charts the relationship between a Czech airman who is assigned a large mansion on the Czech-German border and Adelheid, daughter of its previous Nazi owner, who is allocated to him as a servant. A compelling - and tragic - love story that transcends the absence of verbal communication, feature was also the first film to controversially address the Czech treatment of Germans during the expulsions of the mid-1940s.
