edition: 2019
country: Czech Republic
Director, filmmaker, screenwriter, and editor. He has graduated from the Department of Documentary Film at the Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. He has worked as a teacher, social worker and journalist, and he written screenplays for children’s programmes, documentaries, and current affairs coverage for the Czech Television. His six-part documentary series Enclosed World about the remand prison in Teplice presents stories of several inmates and people from the staff. The cross-section of the current system of enforcement makes the viewer think whether our prison system can correct or change a person. The series was edited into a feature film, which won the main prize at the Ji.hlava IDFF in 2018.
