The film captures the excited political atmosphere in March 1968 Czechoslovakia when president Antonin Novotny stepped down and Ludvik Svoboda was elected a new president. The then top political figures are filmed during their day to day meetings, often during their personal conversations. Thus a mosaic of shots portraying the spirit of those times is created.
