The Shark and the Bee

Jan Martinec

A fable from the post-communist Czech republic. Based on a real story of a Czech enterpreneur Radovan Vítek, the film tells the tale of a community of bees being ferociously tore apart by a young financial shark. Myths blend with reality, imaginary legends of power and wit face the mundane reality of young and hungry eastern european capitalism. The story of success is a story of pain is a story of a success is a story of loss.
