Koniec a začiatok is a fascinating window into the past, really. This 1968 TV movie adaptation of Roman Kaliský's play delves into the gritty atmosphere of the 1950s and the theme of justice—albeit a twisted version of it. The pacing is deliberate, letting the tension build through the courtroom drama that unfolds. It's not flashy, but the practical effects and set design evoke a strong sense of place, immersing you in the era. The performances are compelling, highlighting the moral complexities of the characters. There's something haunting about its portrayal of truth and manipulation, making it a distinctive piece in the realm of television dramas from that time.
Koniec a začiatok has seen limited availability, primarily circulating among niche collectors of Eastern European cinema. It’s one of those titles that enthusiasts often seek out for its historical context and unique storytelling approach. The scarcity of releases, particularly in decent quality, adds to its appeal for collectors looking for something a bit off the mainstream path. It’s worth noting that this film hasn't been widely preserved, further elevating its status among dedicated film aficionados.
