Lidice (also known as The Butcher of Prague and Fall of the Innocent in the UK) is a 2011 Czech drama film produced by Adam Dvořák from a screenplay by Zdeněk Mahler.[1] It was initially directed by Alice Nellis, but after she contracted Lyme disease (borreliosis), Petr Nikolaev took over. It tells a story involving the Nazi massacre at—and destruction of—the Czech village of Lidice. It was released in June 2011.[2] The film is streaming on Amazon Prime under the title Fall of the Innocent (US, 15 April 2018).
The budget of the film was around 65–70 million Kč (around US $4 million).[3]
