War Correspondent
Martin Dorazín is a tall, hardworking, award winning war correspondent from the Czech Republic. His heartfelt radio reports offer a close view of the daily lives of Ukrainian civilians enduring the long-term impact of war. Through his composed perspective, we witness both the struggles of the people and his own balancing act in the field, where he works alongside Oleg, a Ukrainian baker, priest, and humanitarian. Reporting from the front lines – often without internet, electricity, or reliable information – Martin navigates constant danger, supports vulnerable and traumatised individuals, and strives to maintain his own mental and physical stability.
War Correspondent does not focus on military victories but instead captures the enduring resilience of civilians who remain rooted in their homes amid constant explosions. The film also reaches beyond the war, emphasising that a society’s strength lies in its most vulnerable members. Collective survival depends on unity, a theme that resonates even in times of peace.
Flat 6
2022 | 1h 20m | documentary
The highest gear (in slang, ‘flat six’) is the moment when a bike is pushed to its limits, where the racer rides at the highest gear going at maximum speed. What are people willing to sacrifice in pursuit of their passion? To the everyday individual, this could be energy, time, or money. However, there are individuals that are willing to pay the ultimate price. Kamil Holan is one of them. Not just a thrill seeker, but arguably one of, if not the best, current Czech TT racers. He wins the hardest races, riding at speeds of more than 300kph in some of the most dangerous road racing events in the world. The question is, who is this man who risks so much?
Skywalk Above Prague
2020 | 60m | documentary
The opening show of the 2019 Letní Letná festival. Between Heaven and Earth high above Prague’s bridges, a French acrobat is walking. She is passing from one side of the Vltava to the other over a 350-meter tightrope. Her gait reflects absolute concentration and courage but also her faith and the attention of spectators standing on the ground with their heads tilted back in silent awe. This documentary allows the audience to watch this feat from the perspective of Tatiana standing on a rope 35 meters above the river.
