More about the book

The narrative follows Pavel, a once-promising documentary filmmaker, who is constrained by a communist regime, working as a state cameraman. Now middle-aged, he yearns to create a revealing film about his past but finds himself unprepared for the freedoms that arise after the regime's collapse. The story explores the tension between idealism and the complexities of newfound freedom, highlighting Pavel's internal struggle as he navigates a rapidly changing world. It is a poignant examination of personal and societal transformation.
