Resilience

(Při zemi)

Humans can act as nature’s defenders or as an invasive species. While conservationist Pavel strives to ease environmental anxiety and become one with the land, Klára is hot on the trail of a bird poisoner.

Although they never cross paths, together they weave a tale of the fight to preserve the beauty of Czech nature. With Pavel, we can philosophize, mow meadows, and plant trees, while the pragmatically determined Klára takes the audience on a detective-like journey, accompanied by her two loyal canines. Both storylines are elegantly interwoven, with a strong emphasis on audiovisual elements. These are designed to engage not only the intellect, through openly articulated environmental themes, but above all the senses, on par with a full sensory experience. The resonant sound design and brilliant cinematography invite viewers to immerse themselves in nature in a way unprecedented in Czech documentary filmmaking.
