"Through the Eyes of Rose" details the story of Rose Kozak and how
she successfully defied the Czechoslovakian Communists in October
1949 and escaped with her children through the wilderness of the
Bohemian Forest to the freedom of West Germany. John Kozak was just
seven when he escaped with his mother and older sister from
oppressive Communist rule. His emotional retelling of his mother's
struggle to feed her family during the Nazi occupation of
Czechoslovakia, her near drowning in the Danube River, and her
reaction to the news that the Czech Communists had fabricated
criminal charges against her husband all make for an intriguing
look into the lives of a family deeply affected by the Communist
takeover of their native country. When Rose's husband Anthony is
unable to return from Switzerland to Prague where he faces
imprisonment due to fabricated charges by the new Communist regime,
Rose decides to escape. During her journey to seek a better life,
she is betrayed by a money-hungry guide, hunted by tracking dogs,
and nearly captured by a Soviet patrol. One woman's courage and
dogged determination to seek freedom for her family proves that a
mother's love will always persevere over evil.
