Synopsis: When President of the Czech Republic Václav Havel was writing his plays, they were banned from being performed. Since the fall of Communism and Havel becoming President, his dissident works, which lampooned the old totalitarian regime, are now performed across the city. Before Havel criticised the Czech government - now he runs it, a career move that surprised no one more than perhaps Havel himself. ABC Australia profiles the intellectual's transition from anti-establishment to establishment , including interviews with Havel himself, and dissident colleague and Czech Prime Minister Václav Klaus.
