"A retro-futurist satire blending 1980s communist bureaucracy with supernatural absurdity, perfect for fans of screwball sci-fi mysteries."
In the glorious socialist republic, even the supernatural must follow protocol. To se vysvetlí, soudruzi! delivers a wonderfully absurd mix of X-Files paranoia and Eastern Bloc bureaucratic ineptitude. We follow the misfit investigators of the Institute for Paranormal Phenomena as they tackle everything from alien abductions to monster attacks, all while navigating the watchful eye of State Security. Following a finale that upended the status quo, fans are currently stuck in a limbo more stressful than a StB interrogation, waiting to see if the classified files will be reopened. While the Central Committee deliberates on the show's future, adding this title to your watchlist is the only approved method to get notified when operations resume.
