As a political film, I was not sensational. I am used to the waves of death, used to Ji Mdl

JEven Mdl had an extraordinary summer. With his ambitious directorial venture, the historical film The Waves (for which he wrote the script), he toured Czech and Slovak film festivals, screenings and participated in the most diverse discussions. It takes a lot to understand that the success of a film is not only about the film itself, but also about publicity. Just one year is a short time, so the choice of interviews and filming locations is ideal. Arrange meetings. If you happen to be in Prague, his favorite “office” is a bench and a high-pitched in the Albertov Botanical Garden, or he lives nearby. Meet at the Papoukastanov emergency room to get to know the situation better.

Although in many ways he behaves like a little boy who still dares to take risks, he respects balance and experience when answering questions from the outside world. In June this year, he will turn eight years old. He has already completed many films as an actor and served as a director of those feature films. The last one, the serpentine film “Vlna” with a sales of 80 million, I have the highest ambitions – I heard the audience’s reaction Karlovy Vary International Film Festivalhe received a standing ovation from the packed hall Hot Spring Hotel. While telling the news about Albertov, he also talked about his films, the state of Czech cinematography and his cooperation with domestic businessmen.

There was a bit of a buzz at the Leiden Karlovy Vary Festival. Do you consider this a career break?

Some people scold me. But I don’t think so at all. I have a feeling you get the hang of it. I don’t think I would have made a career leap or done better today.
