Zdeněk N. Bričkovský

Zdeněk Bričkovský (1968) studied film direction at FAMU in Prague and graduated in 1996. In 1999 he established DÓMfilm, a company which produces documentary films. His work chiefly focuses on the small, little known nations of Europe and Asia, their traditions, religions and ordinary way of life.

Selection: Legend of the Bird’s Egg (Legenda o ptačím vejci, 2005), Descent from the Mountain of Dreams (Sestup z hory snů, 2004), Story of the Mythical Land of Bumba (Příběh o bájné zemi Bumba, 2002), Svetlojar – Sacred Lake (Svetlojar – posvátné jezero, 2001), Patrick’s Irish Pilgrimage (Irská pouť Patrikova, 1996).
