Návrat do Adriaportu

In 1975, Czech professor of economics Karel Žlábek, in collaboration with engineers from Pragoprojekt, designed and calculated the shortest route for linking Czechoslovakia with the Adriatic Sea via a tunnel. The plan called for spoilage from the tunnel – which would have led beneath the territories of Czechoslovakia, Austria, and Slovenia – to be used to construct an artificial island in the Adriatic Sea. The island, which was to be called Adriaport, would have belonged to Czechoslovakia.
This scripted documentary tells the story of professor Žlábek's meeting with President Gustáv Husák in order to convince him of his vision. (Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival)
