Description The aim of the paper was to articulate a comparative model for historical analysis of nationalized cinemas in the East-Central European region, using the Barrandov studios in Prague as an example. The key question it asked was: how was creativity and day-to-day production of films tactically managed in a system where the only real producer was the state? What organizational instruments had to be developed to balance the centralized control with necessary creative freedom?
