Contents/Summary
- Summary
- For nearly half century after WWII the communist dictatorship persecuted religious institutions in Hungary. Hundreds of innocent priests and monks were imprisoned; others were drawn into the network as agents of the State Security Services, whose reports put their companions at the mercy of the authorities. Through moving, cathartic fates, Confessors & Traitors evokes the past and the lives of people who became victims or collaborators of the dictatorial regime. Reports of state security agents, conversations tapped by the secret services as well as newsreels, photo montages, diaries, agents' reports, and personal accounts bear witness to the persecutions of the post-war years in Hungary.
