Slnko vychádza nad Prašivou (1977)

Directed by Milan Semík

Drama, War

A television film from the period of World War II, whose hero is Ondrej, living alone in his widow's house. The war has not yet touched him, he has only heard about it from people. One day, however, he learns that the Slovak National Uprising has broken out. Old Ondrej also begins to think about how to help the partisans in their difficult fight. He sets off on a journey to Prašiva with his only horse and a long-hidden rifle to give them to the partisans. The journey is long and Ondrej meets various people on it. By the time he reaches Prašiva, the destination of his journey, he realizes where his place is. And although he is not only at the end of his journey following the partisans, but also at the end of his life, his last words become the confession of a simple man who has realized on whose side truth and justice are.
