At the end of the 1960s, when the air is filled with rock-
and-roll and student rebellions are changing the world, the older of two brothers joins a prestigious newsroom of the public radio broadcaster. Not long after, he finds himself
in the middle of a dangerous conflict between journalists and the secret service. A whirlwind of events soon throws everyone’s lives in danger. The main protagonist stands before a difficult choice: should he protect his brother or stand up for the truth and his colleagues?
The film is inspired by the true story of agroup of journalists from the International News Office of Czechoslovak Radio and by their determination to broadcast independent news, regardless of what it may cost them.
