Jiří Trnka: A Long Lost Friend
Sound Assistant
A story of an extraordinary artist who has unintentionally signed a deal with a devil.

His work demonstrated the world that communist society can provide better conditions for extraordinary artistic creations. The ideological clash between West and East didn’t leave children and their stories apart from their struggle in ideological and political positions.
