In this documentary portrait, Iva Janžurová – an icon of Czech cinema, television and theatre – is seen through the sensitive eyes of her own daughter, documentary filmmaker Theodora Remundová. This closest of all possible relationships allows the director to get unusually near to her subject. She reveals not only Iva Janžurová’s estimable present-day work but also her past career and personal life in the period context. We encounter important places and people, delving into not only private correspondence but the movies and theatrical productions in which she performed. We get to know a woman that a large section of the Czech and Slovak public relate to, via film, TV and theatre stories and the characters she embodied, and embodies, in those fields.
