Inspired by true events of the 1989 Czech and Slovak Velvet Revolution and Václav Havel’s controversial release of 23000 prisoners. In addition to the story of three families affected by communist persecution, the film Amnesty also deals with the uprising of prisoners in Leopoldov, which required military intervention.
