Storyline

This film portrait of the artist Josef Lada was made for the purpose of popularising the works of the contemporary artist, whose creative body of work suited ideological objectives. This biopic is conceived for the most part as a commentary on a series of drawings and paintings. Nonetheless, it also captures the artist while he is at work and in contact with family and friends.
