This time-lapse documentary follows the last years of former President Václav Havel's life, creating a multi-layered portrait of a world-famous political icon and important playwright, but also of an ordinary man plagued by health problems. Havel allows the filmmakers a glimpse behind the scenes of his life, revealing purely personal moments that present him in previously unrecognised contours. With a sense of humour, he reflects on his political legacy and universal human issues.

In April 2009, Václav Havel proposed to director Petr Jančárek to film the rest of his life. Their almost three-year-long collaboration, which ended with Havel's death, was characterised by complete openness, the ex-president's trust in the director and the creator's responsibility towards his protagonist. The feature documentary Havel Speaking, Can You Hear Me? is crafted from unique footage and treads the non-existent line between this global figure's private and public personas.

The Olympic Games in antiquity were held in one place to honour Zeus, symbolising wise development and harmony. Although initially local, the Games highlighted this principle in the most advanced society of their time. This concept faded with the fall of Greek civilisation, reemerging centuries later as the Euro-American world reconnected with its ancient heritage.

The modern Olympics also originated in Greece, organised internationally in 1896. They echoed the idea of harmonious development, predicting globalisation and the global influence of our civilisation. However, the Games also became a platform for prestige competition among nations.

Throughout its history, the Olympics has shaped not only sports but also urbanism and architecture, leaving a lasting impact on cities and landscapes. Haruna Honcoop already explored these themes in her award-winning film Built To Last (CZ 2017), focusing on monuments of former communist regimes. Unlike those monuments, Olympic monumentalism serves practical purposes while becoming a timeless, multi-layered symbol.

A pair of Polish filmmakers are conducting an investigation into Putin's hybrid war. They do it in a cinematic way, creating a documentary road movie in which they reveal what was supposed to remain hidden: the Kremlin's secret activities leading to the destabilisation of Central and Eastern Europe. They visit countries that were part of the Soviet sphere of influence until the collapse of the USSR: Poland, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Latvia. There, they follow the activities of GRU agents (the notorious perpetrators of the Salisbury poisoning attempt). They record the testimonies of witnesses and suspects, confronting them with expert comments and facts obtained through their own research.

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine appears to be only part of a much larger plan. Since the beginning of the 21st century, Putin has been working on gradually rebuilding Russia as a world power. His agents not only carry out sabotage and murders but are also covertly influencing – through media manipulation and political corruption – the societies of Russia's neighbours to come back under the control of a resurgent empire.

The film aims to make viewers aware of the dangerous consequences of hybrid aggression, which could lead to Moscow conquering further territories.
