The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988)

The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a 1988 American film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Milan Kundera, published in 1984. Director Philip Kaufman and screenplay writer Jean-Claude Carrière show Czechoslovak artistic and intellectual life during the Prague Spring of the Communist period, before the Soviet and Warsaw Pact invasion in August 1968, as well as detail the moral–political effects and personal consequences upon a bohemian ménage à trois: a medical doctor and his two women.
