It is always possible to be creative! Even in the pre-revolution era in the Czech Republic? In spite of unavailability of the necessary technologies, numerous remarkable video-art works came into existence. The artists Radek Pilař and Petr Skala inspired, for instance, by Woody Vasulka, were behind the foundation of the Videosection group. The film surveys reconstruction of the first exhibition of video art in 1989. It examines what value the forgotten works have for contemporary art and introduces the current views of the group members who each went their own way.
