Šikl has spent many years seeking out and collecting private film archives. Faded footage of family lives, celluloid echoes of celebrations and everyday moments. Through his work, Šikl came across several hours of footage showing the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia.
These unique images long remained unseen – until August 21, 2021, when historical memory awakened from a long slumber. Reconstruction of Occupation is a cinematic adventure of a truly archeological nature in which anonymous faces are transformed into living witnesses of the days that sent Czechoslovakia into two more decades of bondage.
Adam Ol'ha served as DoP on the film which was edited by Šimon Špidla. Jan Šikl Jr. composed the music. Reconstruction of Occupation was produced by Alice Tabery for Prague-based CINEPOINT, with Slovakia's PubRes, Czech Republic's Pragafilm and Czech and Slovak national broadcasters on board as co-producers.
