Praga Farewells: Gallery

This documentary presents Praga as a small town rather than a district of a bustling city. Viewers can observe service facilities, signboards, and craftsmen whose trades are fading into history. The film features grinders, engravers, tailors, blacksmiths, and saddlers, highlighting their rarity in modern times.

A poignant symbol of change is a cabman portrayed against the backdrop of contemporary high-rises. The film also showcases backyards where traditional elements like mangles are still in use, reflecting the roles of women in beauty and hairdressing. A lighthouse keeper lighting gas lamps further emphasizes the contrast between the past and the present, as this bygone world slowly fades away.
