Abstract
In the years immediately following World War II, Europe faced a new geo-political constellation. The war fundamentally transformed the international diplomatic position of Czechoslovakia as a small nation on the border between the East and West. This study examines the efforts of the Czechoslovak government to restore diplomatic relations through the screening of short nonfiction films at its foreign embassies. It examines ambassadorial screenings as a special kind of nontheatrical film practice and discusses these screenings both in the context of strained political relations at the time of the Cold War’s overture and in the context of a postwar vision of peace-building dissemination of information.
