Description |
"Rock 'n' Roll" takes a double exposed image of worlds that were once a world apart: Cambridge and Prague, from the tumult of 1968 to the momentous changes of 1990. In Cambridge, an academic justifies his support for Communism long after everyone has deserted the faith. In Prague, a young man falls into political dissidence as easily as falling in love. |
