The three are caught up in the events of the Prague Spring (1968), until the Soviet tanks crush the non-violent rebels; their illusions are shattered and their lives change forever.

Comments: Very good movie. Ireally like daniel day-lewis and juliet binoche. i also think lena olin is one the sexiest women i've ever seen so i had to see this movie. i liked the other films i've seen of phillip kaufman but i'd have to say this is the best i've seen. very good film. the acting is good. loved the story though i've not read the book. binoche is very good and so is day-lewis. olin is on fire. recommended to people who like smart sexy movies.
