Jan Hus - epizode 3

80 minutes

English friendly

The final episode of a three part film telling the story of one of the most important Czechs of all times is a drama about the meaning of truth and the highest of sacrifices. Hus is very ill and depleted by his long incarceration and he doesn’t have much energy left to defend himself. However, he still hopes his stance may be understood in the end. He does not give up even when king Zikmund intervenes to grant him a hearing in front of the council and when a genuine article form Hus’ book De ecclesia is presented. Hus confirms his statements that people are not obliged to obey the clergy or a secular ruler when they live in sin. This means he lost the support of the Roman Emperor and his fate is decided.
