Christmas is approaching... By the river, in the winter fog, a woman huddles. She is a merchant from a nearby shop. She would give her right arm for a penny, so even the frost cannot dampen her joy at her Christmas catch. The carp will be fresh and, best of all, free! But the greedy merchant isn't satisfied. She plunges her net into the water again. "Let me go, good woman..." a gentle voice suddenly calls out from the river. The merchant can't believe her eyes—a magical mermaid has been caught in her nets!

Eyewitness poster
6.0

"A documentary anatomy of mass murder for one monitor and 34 talking heads." These are the words the filmmakers use in the credits to describe their project, which thematises the execution of more than 260 Carpathian Germans, Hungarians and Slovaks by Czechoslovak army soldiers near Přerov in June 1945. The “massacre at Přerov” is made present through a minimalist dramatisation of the interrogation footage of direct participants, eyewitnesses, and others. It is as if the characters of ancient theatre were entering the Zoom “stage” and delivering a tragic message of fear, hatred and disinterest across the chasm of time.

Zofie (Jaroslava Schallerová) is serious to the point of reticence and she is delighted with her friendship with Dominika. For the self-assured and superficial Dominika (Irena Svárová) the whole thing is just a momentary whim. When she leaves the work camp before everybody else, she doesn't even say goodbye to Zofie. The two girls meet again after the holidays as first-year students at medical school, and become close again during the nursing techniques class.
