A photo book by Joseph Koudelka, a photographer born in Czechoslovakia in 1938. This book is a photograph of the Czechoslovak revolutionary movement "Prague Spring" of 1968. At the time, Koudelka managed to evade the authorities and smuggle the film, which was distributed by Magnum in 1969 as the work of an anonymous photographer, causing a huge shock around the world. And anonymously, he won the Robert Capa Award in the same year. It wasn't until 1984, 15 years after its publication, that he finally announced that it was his own work. Almost 40 years after the photographs were taken, Koudelka reviewed his own archives and selected 249 images for this collection. Most of them will be published for the first time.
