Golden Swan (ZlatĆ” LabuÅ„) - The complete Irlena story (0/84)
A miracle happened in our country and we got an actually good show with very well-written and interesting wlw representation. I really want to spread this amazing story, but because Youtube is homophobic and won't let me upload the videos I decided to share their story with you here.
I will be posting a new video every day (at 8pm CET), so buckle up and enjoy the ride with me, it is a wild one.
Please even if you are not interested yourself, if you can, reblog this post so it may get to some of your followers who might want to see this :) Thank you
This first post is about the introduction to the premise and the characters, a lot is happening and I will do my best to keep you in the loop. If you wanna know or see more, don't hesitate to hit me up in my asks :)
Synopsis:
The show begins in 1939 during the protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia under Nazi occupation, at the beginning of World War II. The story centers around the rich KuÄera family, who own a newly opened luxury department store in the center of Prague called Golden Swan (ZlatĆ” LabuÅ„)
Characters:
Irena MaÅ”kovĆ” - a daughter of the head of the KuÄera family, a very hardened, ambitious, and ruthless woman, who is fighting hard for the approval of her father who often dismisses her based only on the fact she is a woman. She loves the luxury of her life, and staying at the helm of their family business is the most important thing to her. She has an estranged husband LukĆ”Å” with whom she has two sons
Alena ZimovĆ” - a very kind and warm-hearted young woman who starts working at Golden Swan as a salesgirl. She left the small village she was born in for Prague in hopes of escaping her homophobic parents and life in the anonymity of a big city. She is dating a waiter Jakub from Swan's restaurant, who wants to marry her
Also huge thanks and credit for english subtitles goes to @ ScorpiStraub on twitter. At least I think :) I tracked them down through multiple ppl and accounts, reached out, but didn't get any answer. But I'm like 90% sure they are the ones who made the subtitles :)
