How Husák imagined he was Věra Čáslavská

Gustáv Husák and Věra Čáslavská - two opposites of one period. Anode and Cathode. There is no better premise for a farce. There is no better starting point for clowns. An original take on our recent past. Gustav Husák as a comedian. The slowest comedian in the world. So long in office that he becomes ridiculous even to himself. Isn't that a risk even today? Communist versus gymnast. This has never happened before. Or has it?
