Actress Hana Maciuchova and actor Jiri Adamira during the filming of the radio play Life for Real

In the 1970s, radio plays had to adhere to a realistic form and draw from the classical repertoire. However, in the following decade, original Czech radio dramas once again came to the forefront, thanks in part to the Prix Bohemia festival. The intimate pieces dramaturgically led by Josef Hlavnička are among the most valuable. The photograph shows Hana Maciuchová and Jiří Adamíra recording Oldřich Knitl’s play Life for Real.
