Private Lives

Our story takes place between 1938 and 1953 and captures the fame and misery of an attractive filmmaking environment in two totalitarian regimes, and how the line between bohemian life in Barrandov Studios and the concentration camps was very thin at the time. People balanced luxury and death, betrayal and resistance, and cowardice and heroism. They collaborated with the Nazis and at the same time cooperated with the resistance.
