Paroubek with a Thousand Faces

Jan Látal / Czech Republic / 2011 / World Premiere / 35 min.


synopsis

FilmPOLITICIAN goes in search of the reasons for the negative media image of Jiří Paroubek. The former head of the Social Democrats and former prime minister was frequently ridiculed and caricatured as the embodiment of evil and a repulsive person who was leading the country to hell. The filmmaker printed out the best-known picture of him and went to ask journalists, techno-fans, and Paroubek himself.
