Czechtember continues with a look at Otakar Vavra’s Witchhammer. Based on the 1963 book by Václav Kaplický, the film looks at the paranoia of a witch hunt in Moravia during medieval times. And, being released in 1970, the film also looks at the persecution of women as well as show trials in the Communist system. Samm Deighan and Rahne Alexander join Mike to discuss this harrowing film.
