This documentary was subjected to condemnation and attempts for institutional censorship as soon as it was done. It completely divided the society of a small post-communist country that hasn’t yet dealt with its past and the fundamental role of the Secret Service. A scandalous case behind Socialism’s greatest export – the art of animation reveals a heartbreaking human story. Meet Uncle Tony.
