The Modern-day Robin Hood

Eliška Cílková / Czech Republic / 2017 / World Premiere / 14 min.


synopsis

This film, shot on 16mm colour film, explores the life of a person who steals things according to written lists. He takes only specific things that people need – primarily senior citizens, single mothers, and other socially marginalized people. When is a crime a crime? Where does this modern 21st-century Robin Hood live, and what do his activities bring him?
