NRA film driven by the chaotic energy of Prague streets. Comprising several direct survey probes, they collectively present a picture of societal apathy and the values of contemporary Czech youth. In addition to the author herself, this is represented by more or less sober young people who unashamedly confide in the camera their attitudes towards the climate crisis, feminism or the war in Ukraine. But they also talk about the meaning of life, the secret of good sex or love, the search for which (and not finding) is one of the central themes of the film.
Minimum Love
2025
An idiot for some, a genius for others. Zoran is an urban legend of a Serbian block of flats who allegedly travelled the whole world without a single ID on him. After that, he went nuts due to politics, war and MDMA. “I saw it with my own naked eye,” nodded a half-blind old man. Though a clear answer to the question who Zoran really was is not to be expected at the end of this semi-serious manhunt, it is more than sure that even if he did not exist, the locals must have had to think him up.
