Good Beyond Evil is the story of a handful of ordinary people who
risked their lives to save the lives of one Jewish family. It
begins in the spring of 1939, weaves through the post-liberation
period and ends in 1997 with a ceremony at Yad Vashem. The
acceptance of two of the main characters into the Community of
'Righteous Among the Nations' provokes humbling reflection on the
richness of opportunities enjoyed by members of the family who were
saved compared with the narrowly circumscribed lives of those who
saved them. Set in the broader context of Czechoslovakia's short
history, its democratic institutions and endemic anti-Semitism,
Good Beyond Evil is a also a requiem for a once-flourishing Jewish
community.
