Vyprávěj

2009–2013 · 5 seasons

A gentle, nostalgic stroll through decades of family life, history drifting past like old newsreels.

Created by
Rudolf Merkner, Petr Šizling
Genres
Family, Drama
Starring
Svatopluk Skopal, Veronika Freimanová, Roman Vojtek
Overview
Set in Czechoslovakia, the drama follows the lives of its characters against the backdrop of real historical events that shape their personal stories. To evoke period atmosphere, the series intersperses authentic clips from vintage Czechoslovak film newsreels, using their original commentaries or newly recorded historical voice-overs by Vladimír Fišer. A narrator, initially voiced by Vojtěch Kotek and later by Matěj Hádek, provides continuity and reflection, guiding viewers through changing times. Under the guidance of screenwriter Rudolf Merkner, each episode’s script weaves family and individual dramas into key moments of Czech and Slovak history: political shifts, cultural trends, and social transformations from the 1960s onward.
