The Greatest Wish

The Greatest Wish

Olga Malířová Špátová / Czech Republic, Slovakia / 2012 / World Premiere / 80 min.


synopsis

Asking someone “What is your greatest wish?” is as bizarre as asking them what three things they would take with them on a desert island. It is one of those questions that people usually don’t answer nor expect an answer to. Olga Špátová and her camera insist on hearing the answer, and she sets out to ask people from a diverse range of social groups, with different lifestyles and motivations, beliefs, opinions, and status. How do their responses reflect the values of contemporary society?
