A mame co sme chceli

Contrary to content highlighted in the official trailer, this story does not deal with complicated relationship between Czech and Slovaks in the Czechoslovak Federation in years following the fall of communist regime or the dissolurion of this country itseld. Apart from a few sentences devoted to this matter (all packed into the trailer), this movie rather focuses on the communist past and its impact on individual families. It is somewhat dissapointing, that from four decades of totaliarian regime with thosands of well-documented attrocities commited by the secret communist police, the filmmakers 30-something years later chose a rather banal case for the movie.

The scenes were good for that particular era, with only minor imperfections and details. Kramer, the young canadian/american actress, was a true delight in the movie, unfortunately, it was not enough to save this title from a disappointing impression.
