Adopted text on the work: The artists view their film as an exploration of discontinuity/continuity of Czech art in recent decades. In one interview about the document Zbyněk Baladrán says: "We realised that which continues to appear lively too us can be found with architects - it's above all their theoretical potential, their interest in the social sphere and connection to political thinking. We wanted to reject the surrealistic-lyrical line that lingers for us in Czech art and to stress another one. The examination of avant-garde architecture was part of the broader interest in modernist thinking that is already passé as a historic segment. I was intrigued that it is - despite the onset of postmodernism - still rooted in us. It's a kind of grid that we think through." (Stavba, 5/2008). Appearing: Jana Ševčíková and Jiří Ševčík, Vladimír Skrepl and Radek Váňa.
