In Czechoslovakia, the year 1968 was a period of reforms, with attempts to create a democratic form of socialism or socialism with a human face. In one night, the society shook in its foundations, the curtain fell, the bondage hurt, people made fateful decisions, lived through situations putting their human substance on trial. 68 is a micro-story about people in borderline situations, which force them to make fateful reactions radically changing their lives. A man and a woman were separated by the curtain as a symbol of a real or metaphorical border.
