Pavel Wonka Commits to Cooperate (2014)

Pavel Wonka is known in the Czech historical context as a dissident, an anti-Communist, and the last political prisoner to die in a communist prison. Libuse Rudinská searches for long-archived reports and interviews people who came into contact with him - both from his circle of friends and from the ranks of the the Czechoslovak secret police. Thanks to her efforts, she discovered his possible cooperation with the secret police. She uses an austere reporting tone, and appears in front of the camera herself in the position of reporter. The film is supplemented with narrative commentary reading the allegations of the responsible officer Zdenek Spulák. In its entirety, the film leads to reflections on the need for the revision of historical approaches to the recent past.
