Fantastic historical drama
The movie is in PALs format so Americans should be ready to overcome that hurdle. I was able to watch withy PC.
The story as told from a Hussite perspective and helps convey poignantly the sense of persecution that led to their conflict.
The sets, costuming and locations were all well done such that it made the aged film feel like bad footage of a real event and that was immersive.
