Plots(1)

Biographical drama The Key is the first film that fully complies with the demands of the Normalisation period which started setting in at the time. A film about communist official and anti-Nazi resistance fighter Jan Zika shamelessly manipulates facts, promoting Communist ideology and foisting the idea of Soviet Union's indispensability. Luckily, Čech's film is an exceptionally boring debacle. (Summer Film School)
