This film, which was initiated by Polish filmmakers, introduces viewers to how Václav Havel was viewed "next door". In Poland, too, Havel was considered an important person and a symbol. The film sheds light on the little-known relationship between the Polish and Czech opposition and offers a unique testimony on the meetings and actions that helped to bring down the totalitarian regimes in Europe.
