Talking about art with Rudolf Hrušínský. The film makes intriguing use of the various ways to modify temporal linearity, the narrative structures of verbal expression, and the lexicon applied to visual phenomena. Sometimes the dialogue disappears altogether, leaving a silent visual track with a highly distinctive atmosphere.
An audience-friendly "interview” which extends beyond the confines of time and generations to examine important issues concerning the role of art and artists in the world and society. Can radio, that apparently antiquated medium, find a way to open those strange borders between art and reality? Is the radio interview, both a very public and, at the same time, intimate format, a vehicle by which art can propagate its ideas? The filmmaker is also involved in a whole spectrum of other projects often realised in association with artists such as Tomáš Moravec.
