Description
This fateful love story is set in Prague during the late 1930s and subsequent Nazi occupation. It focuses on radio journalist Emil, who is deeply in love with his glamorous Jewish movie star wife Hana. When the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia is established, Hana's career is cut short and Emil's radio station put under German control. Emil chooses to collaborate with the occupiers in order to survive and protect his wife. Ironically, this choice threatens to destroy the very thing he's trying to protect: Hana. As the restrictions on Jews are systematically increased, Hana becomes increasingly depressed. Emil forbids her to go out, even to the movies. Meanwhile, as a man-about-town, Emil starts enjoying his celebrity and the company of other women. But restless Hana meets a subversive movie projectionist, and with him flouts laws banning her from cinemas, cafes, and other public places. Ultimately, the assassination of Reichsprotektor Reinhard Heydrich provides a twist that once again strengthens Emil and Hana's bond.
