Inhaltsangabe auf Englisch

This post-war film from the series Czechoslovak Film Chronicle shows the role of national committees in shaping the new face of the republic. Using the town of Úpice as an example, we follow their steps from managing transport and educating young people, to organizing the expulsion of Germans. The film is supplemented by archive footage, and commentary by radio announcer Stanislav Kozák.
