She wrote it when she was 80 years old about her experiences which is called Jozova Hanule. this village depicted in the movie reminds me of villages I have been to in the Czech Republic. I believe during this time period the villagers would have done everything to survive and not to bring attention of the Gestapo. My grandmother would always say that they were waiting for the Soviets army as liberators and fortunately she did not experience the violence in the movie but that did happen but did have to hide her bike, clocks, mirrors and anything of value in the hay loft so the Russians would not steal them.
