NOTES

Title from title frames

Part two begins with a depiction of Jan Zajíc’s self-burning at the end of February 1969. Attorney Burešová takes on the case of Palach’s mother and brother against Dr. Nový and, with the help of her young legal clerk Pavel, begins searching for evidence of the fallacy of Nový’s claims. The search for witnesses, however, is accompanied by numerous complications. Nový avoids receiving his summons and the beginning of the trial is repeatedly postponed. With a colleague’s help, attorney Burešová gets her hands on a document that illuminates Nový’s past. The document indicates that Nový was once arrested during the Stalinist purges and probably collaborated with the KGB to avoid the death penalty
