On our street in the morning

Short documentary featuring scenes of daily life in postwar Prague, which are contrasted with the bleak days of the Czechoslovakian Uprising. Set to a jaunty soundtrack, this film about the Czechoslovakian Uprising is bookended by depictions of modern day Prague where civilians happily socialise, work and shop. These scenes are contrasted with footage and images of the anti-Nazi uprising of 1945, and the documentary is dedicated to those who lost their lives during the liberation. | Content warning: Includes images that some viewers may find distressing.
