November
The producers of the film 'Listopad' are telling this story of dissent through the use of reenactments, vox populi interviews and interviews with key student leaders, political activists, dissident artists and members of the police force. The primary storytelling device for the film has been a series of reenactments staged during the twentieth anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, on November 13-18, 2009, and continuing throughout 2010, on the main sites of the events of 1989. Three main individuals, who participated in the events of November 17th, 1989, emerged and are featured in this documentary film. By putting these three characters together in the documentary film and in confrontation with the reenactments, the filmmakers have brought back to life the emotions and individual memories of 1989 and believe that the characters have reached a catharsis on their part in the sense of what the meaning and relevance of the Velvet Revolution is 20 years on.
