A bust of Stalin is cut open on an operating table, leading to an elaborate animated depiction of Czech history from 1948 (the Communist takeover) to 1989 (the Velvet Revolution). Some knowledge of the subject is essential in order to understand the film, which is entirely visual.

"DIR: Jan Svankmajer SUMMARY: When a bust of Stalin is operated on, it reveals an animated history of Czechoslovakia from 1948-1989.
