The 3×55′ project follows an experienced investigative journalist who teams up with a young independent online investigator after an attack on the Czech president.
The miniseries is written by Štefan Titka, who is its creator together with producer Vratislav Šlajer and Lukáš Hanulák.
The main cast includes Czech actors Miroslav Donutil and Jan Révai, Polish actress Eliza Rycembel and Ukrainian actress Daria Plakhtii.
Apart from Eurimages, the project is backed by the incentives programme of the Czech Film Fund and the Slovak Audiovisual Fund. Czech/Slovak/Polish Bionaut Works and Ukraine’s Film.UA are providing servicing.
