LONG LIVE! / audio documentary

On Sunday, November 25. 1990, pyrotechnicians succeeded in definitively removing Gottwald's statue from Freedom Square in Bratislava with a single shot. The audio documentary talks about the origin, life and death, and in a certain form the immortality of this art work, which in the past had the task of representing the communist ideology of the country. It also examines the fate of other politically engaged sculptural works after the ideological changes in the country, culminating on November 17. 1989.
