- Synopsis: Closely Watched Trains tells the story of Milo�� Hrma, a young railroad apprentice coming of age in wartime Czechoslovakia. Milo�� is overwhelmed with worries ��� about his virginity, his love for the conductor, and ongoing scandals in the stationmaster���s office ��� besides which the idea of fighting the Germans seems a simple affair. Poignant, humorous and the inspiration behind the 1966 Academy Award-winning film, this is a small masterpiece from one of the best Czech writers of the twentieth century.
