Unfinished film.
An attempt at a historical show describing the suffering of the Czech people from mythical times to the Bílá hora and the tragic world wars; the film is concluded with an apotheosis of the resurrection of the nation of Hus and Žižka.
The film was never completed due to errors and endless modifications. It was probably shown in the summer of 1919 only in country cinemas. With the film and some of the actors was associated a moral affair with the Excelsiorfilm’s Actor School. The film materials are believed lost.
