Karel Reisz, ten filmový život

A documentary film about Karel Reisz, next to Miloš Forman the most famous filmmaker of Czech origin. The film captures an interesting personal and professional story of a man who used his childhood in Ostrava and Czechoslovakia as the foundation for the establishment of Free Cinema and the British New Wave. The Free Cinema films are a valuable legacy – fascinating, beautiful, sometimes hopeful and often sad, but always authentic. In his first films the substantial influence of Ostrava can be seen, a city that is fascinating, often sad, but full of life and truth. A city that formed his cinematic poetry.
