Czech Peace

Czech Peace is a documentary that examines the intersection of global geopolitics and the lives of ordinary citizens. The story focuses on the mayor of Trokavec, a tiny Czech village of eighty people, who attempts to stop the United States government from establishing a military base in his community. The conflict involves a wide range of figures, including peace activists, arms industry lobbyists, and high-level American political leaders such as George W. Bush, Condoleezza Rice, and Barack Obama. Through this struggle, the film explores the tension between individual residents and impersonal political systems.

Produced by Česká televize and Hypermarket Film, the documentary was directed by Vít Klusák and Filip Remunda. Both Klusák and Remunda also served as the film's producers. Following their previous work on the documentary Czech Dream, this project continues their exploration of social and political dynamics. The film has a runtime of 100 minutes and was released on May 6, 2010. On IMDb, the movie holds a rating of 6.8/10 based on 90 votes.
