Those Who Dance in the Dark
Director of Photography
“Try to describe what it's like to see,” one of the blind actors in Jana Ševčíková's documentary urges the film crew. The same challenge for him is to express how reality is perceived and experienced by a visually impaired person. Ševčíková therefore does not explain the blindness. Using everyday situations as examples, she empathetically and without pathos presents the stories of six people who never stop dreaming, yearning, and searching for ways to be as free in life as the sighted majority. They find sources of energy in work, sports, dance, and relationships. We are also transported into their world by the dimly lit black and white camera and the layered soundtrack.

Lean A Ladder Against Heaven
Director of Photography
At his parsonage over the Tatra Mountains, Marian Kuffa readily takes care of more than 200 people in need. This unostentatious movie is not just a portrait of a remarkably selfless man but also a more general contemplation of the complicated lives of alcoholics, junkies, and all other social outcasts, as well as an elegant reflection on mercy and the forms that faith can take.

Он — из тех, над кем в школе издевались, кого дразнили, кого били, над кем смеялись. Но сейчас Антонин работает в могущественной организации и обладает полной властью над людьми. Вместе со своим коллегой он «обрабатывает» чешских диссидентов: врачей, писателей, ученых. Задача Антонина Руснака сломать людей, заставить их сотрудничать с StB или покинуть страну. Сейчас их главная цель — врач Томаш Сикора. Выясняется, что Томаш Сикора завел себе любовницу, которая работает крановщицей на заводе. И в какой-то момент лейтенант Руснак понимает, что он должен овладеть этой женщиной. Она должна стать его. Руководство лейтенанта Руснака начинает слежку и за своим сотрудником, опасаясь, что тот сошел с ума. Но лейтенанту Руснаку не страшно ничего, он знает, что он умнее и хитрее всех.

Sentiment
Camera Operator
Sentiment is Tomáš Hejtmánek's intimate documentary portrait of the great Czech director František Vláčil. The film was inspired by encounters with the filmmaker and told through taped interviews, reconstructions of meetings with Vláčil, visits to actual film locations (of Marketa Lazarova, The Valley of the Bees and Adelheid) and Vláčil-inspired film sequences. The result is one of the most unique and personal portraits of any artist – a collage of voices, sounds and images that evoke and celebrate Vláčil’s life and work.
The Rite of Spring
Cinematography
This film came into being on a farm in the village of Hakushu, Min Tanaka's home. Min Tanaka is a very distinctive personality of Japanese alternative theatre in which the mind questions the tongue and so the body becomes the tongue. Min Tanaka's dance is able to speak even to those who know nothing about Japan and Japanese art. Perhaps it is because, on their road to discovery, Min and his dancers probe deep down to the roots of the culture of all peoples, to the time when we were not yet Europeans and they were not Japanese.
