Synopsis

This documentary about an exceptional personality of Slovak culture captures the creativity and life journey of Milan Sládek, full of unexpected twists and turns. Sládek was present in the early 1960s at the birth of modern Slovak mime. His performances influenced not only Slovak but also European Thespians. Following the occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1968, he emigrated to Germany and travelled all over the world with his performances. The film is a testimony not only to his individual efforts, but also to the fates of an entire generation of Slovak Thespians.
