Ideological blinkers in the film Vlny: How rewriting history undermines democracy

Many thanks to Marián Lóži and Jan Čulík for their critical comments on this text. Some intellectuals seek to understand the past in order to learn from it; others reshape it to suit their own political convictions. Jiří Mádl falls into the second category. His film Vlny (Waves) is an attempt to rewrite Czechoslovak communist history, an approach that can unfortunately come as no surprise after 35 years of inadequate historical education and unbridled anticommunism in the Czech public sphere.
