Contents/Summary
- Summary
- Noted director Márta Mészáros finishes up her acclaimed semi-autobiographical "diary" series which started with her 1982 "Diary for My Children". After her idealist father gets swept away by Soviet propaganda about a socialist Eden, young Vilma gets packed off to Kirgizstan along with her family. Instead of finding paradise, however, they discover only totalitarian oppression and political murder. One by one, her family is killed on trumped-up charges as part of Stalin's purges. Later, Vilma is taken into a Young Soviet school, given the more revolutionary name Nina Alexeyevna, and eventually allowed to return to her native Hungary.
