Descrição:
Four decades on from the 'Prague Spring' and 60 years after the Communist takeover in Czechoslovakia, EuroNews invited the writer, film-maker and former political prisoner Jiri Stransky to talk about those times. Stransky is now involved in teaching school children about their country's communist history in a project called 'Stories of Injustice.' He was born in 1931 into an influential Prague political family, his grandfather was prime minister in the 1930's. When the Communists took over, in 1948, Jiri was banned from studying and in 1953 was arrested on false charges of spying. He was sentenced to eight years in prison, much of which he spent working in a uranium mine. It was there, literally "underground", he found the inspiration to write. EuroNews met former PEN Club chairman Stransky at the Czech PEN Club in Prague.
