Jiří Trnka: Nalezený přítel

Jiří Trnka's documentary: A Found Friend is told by the director, who searches for the fate of Jiří Trnka, the author of films of his childhood, which he saw in France as a child in a workers' cinema, which screened Eastern European animation. During his travels to Czechoslovakia, he met Tereza Brdečková in later years and together they tried to find an answer to the question of who Jiří Trnka was. They devote themselves to its difficult beginnings, influencing the Czech puppetry tradition, and the almost fatal random invitation to lead an animated film studio. They follow his path to world success in the dark 1950s to his conflict with the communist regime at the end of his life.
