Notes:

This film is a part of the "Slovak Cinema of the 60's" DVD edition
(released by SFI & The Daily SME), which also includes:

"322" ("322")
"Deň náš každodenný..." ("Our Daily Day...")
"Drak sa vracia" ("Dragon's Return")
"Jánošík I-II" ("Jánošík I-II")
"Kristove roky" ("The Prime of Life")
"Organ" ("The Organ")
"Pieseň o sivom holubovi" ("The Song of the Grey Pigeon")
"Slávnosť v botanickej záhrade" ("Celebration in the Botanical Garden")
"Slnko v sieti" ("The Sun in a Net")

I was quite surprised to see player-generated Slovak subtitles on this one - I dunno why, but I always thought the burnt-in ones were an inseparable part of the film:

SFI & The Daily SME (frame	25923 \| 40922 \| 64436 \| 138902)
STV 2 DVB (frame	25917 \| 40907 \| 64408 \| 138824)

SFI & The Daily SME (frame 25923)

Anyway, the only real issue I saw here is the inadequate bitrate in a couple of scenes, which makes the picture blocky. Still, it's much better off than that of the DVB recording I was comparing this against:

SFI & The Daily SME (frame	89355)
STV 2 DVB (frame	89312)

*difference between channels is -61.62 dB (0.08 %)
