Taboo

“Why love women when there are so many beautiful men?“
or "Things one wouldn’t expect from Czechoslovakian television..."

As early as one year after the downfall of communism one of the first television programmes about homosexuality was made. The limits of normality“ and “Double life“ offer, considering the time of production, a strikingly open look at the, up until then, taboo topic. Stories of “real“ gays and lesbians are accompanied by comments from doctors, especially Dr. Antonín Brzek, and by the sometimes funny, sometimes surprising opinions of students and people from the city and the countryside.
