Charlie Soukup is a Czech underground songwriter and Charter 77 signatory. He emigrated in the early 1980s, and has spent the last several decades living on his own in the Australian outback as a hermit and Buddhist. Documentary filmmaker Jiří Holba sought Soukup out on his large property in the bush, where he builds secret shelters and lives away from civilization. The film, which Holba shot entirely alone on location, presents spontaneous conversations and situations that fully capture Soukup’s distinctive charisma. The film’s series of monologues are a kind of stream of thoughts that are part mad rambling and part insightful observations on life.

Эта реальная история, произошедшая в Шумперском районе в мае 1945 года. Побег Агнес, немецкой жены чешского лесничего Яна Ольшана, окутан тайной. Только она сама знает, кто и почему ее ищет. Конец войны, тяжелое время, в приграничье возвращаются чехи из внутренних районов страны, возникают отряды гвардии и приходят солдаты. Судьба сводит вместе изгоя Яна и его немецкого шурина Юргена, который только что вернулся с Восточного фронта. Оба ищут одну и ту же женщину, Агнес. А она в это время бежит через дикие леса, преследуемая самым могущественным человеком в окрестностях из-за того ужаса, которому стала свидетельницей. Через горы ведет тернистый путь познания судьбоносности союза Яна и Агнес…

Film crew on the road: Director (Jaroslav Plesl), his Producer (Simona Babcáková), and their Director of Photography (Jirí Vyorálek) and Sound Arist (Johana Svarcova). Starving artists who already have a number of films to their names, Czech Lion award-winning films, excellent reviews and have been screened at numerous festivals, but they don't have audiences. Their next collaborative effort - the Director's lifetime dream - is quickly becoming oblivion because he failed to win a grant, which means it won't be made. And so the frustrated Director and his colleagues await their chance among record-holders of curious disciplines such as crawling with a squash racket or collecting four-leaf clovers. How will the collision of these two worlds end? What will the Director's next film be about?
