This series was good. It showed the complexity of the Balkan region. Also showed how bad communism was. Hoxha was a brute. The casting was good too. I also liked how the world changed during the decades. A shame that not many people commented on this TV movie.

A sequel to this movie can be played in our heads. Communism is the loser for sure. Nationalism will win. I would assume that the baby will be brought up by the Greek chap who would become a rich magnate. He would adopt his values which is better than that of his birth mother's (communism) and birth father's (nationalism). The Greek man's ideology is every man for himself.

Controlling population growth may not be such a bad idea since the fauna of this planet are suffering due to man's selfishness. Human overpopulation results in cutting down of trees for open space and farmland. This then results in greenhouse gases which today we sadly see the effects. Controlling population growth is not a fascist thing. Sure China does it. Yes I know that Chinese are communists but they too can be labeled fascists. I have not seen the movie. But we should make a science 'fiction' movie like this one. Perhaps another remake of this movie should be in the works. With a big starred cast, we will be more inclined to be struck by the message of the film and maybe change our habits.
