Synopsis

For this postmodern crime drama Croatian director Lordan Zafranović cast popular actor Jiří Bartoška. He plays a father facing a rather bizarre mid-life crisis: his daughter has fallen in love with him. The conception is dominated by the use of varied, visual electronic surveillance devices which serve as a metaphor for 'God's eye.' This in turn is personified by a private detective played by Pavel Zedníček.
