Documentary about Kosovo banned in Czech Republic

[Sarmatian]

Documentary about Kosovo made by Czech national TV station. that was supposed to be aired in March this year, was first moved to April and finally taken completely of the schedule because of the pressure of the Czech government. The documentary was scheduled to be shown some time before Czech parliament made their second try to recognize independent Kosovo, since first was unsuccessful.

The government's reason to refuse to show the film is because it is "biased and shows only one side of the story", according to Czech daily Aktualne (in czech). The director Vaclav Dvorak and his associates said that although they've shown in the film some archive footage from the Serbian TV, not a single penny was received from Serbian government, organizations or any Serbs. Dvorak asked them to point out one image, picture or a segment which was untruthful, the question which remained and still remains unanswered.

Disappointed and frustrated by the decision to take the film of the schedule, the director Dvorak and his associates decided to show the movie on youtube.

One hour long documentary can be seen in its entirety on youtube (also it can be downloaded from all better torrent sites ) in 10 parts, with english subtitles, if anyone is interested.

Censorship or not? Does the government have the right to decide which documentary is truthful or untruthful? Was this done so that Czech parliament can recognize Kosovo with a clean conscience? I mean, if the second try failed, forcing them to have a third go on the issue of Kosovo recognition would have been embarrassing.

Do we have any Czechs here? I'm sure they could give some more info on the issue. My Czech is pretty bad. I understand general meaning but not all words.
