AB  - The text deals with the reassessment and release of Czechoslovak films banned during the normalization. It focuses mainly on the years 1988 and 1989, on the initiatives of the Union of Dramatic Artists (SČDU) and on the work of the union's evaluation committee in the context of the tendency to re-evaluate films throughout the 1980s. The article offers a new perspective on vaulted - banned films as a focal point into which the different agendas of the various Czechoslovak state cultural institutions were connected and clashed.
