A four-part miniseries written by Miro Šifra and directed by Jan Hřebejk goes back to post-1989 times when no one truly trusts anyone. Only few days before the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, a promising military prosecutor Rédl (Ondřej Sokol) closes a big case with the last State Security commander. When a student from the neighbourhood goes missing, Rédl sets out to find him. Evidence leads him to organized crime linked to the withdrawal of Soviet troops. First bodies start to appear. It is not only his career which is in jeopardy… (Finále Plzeň)

English The series has one significant downside. I was very disappointed with the conclusion. I really don't like Ondřej Sokol (Don't ask me why, I have no idea.), but I didn’t mind him in the role of Rédl. David Novotný and Martin Hofmann, on the other hand, were absolutely great. But the best thing of all was the perfect atmosphere which brought back a lot of interesting memories from the nineties. 5*- ()
