Planeta Česko

Within the environment of open cast brown coalmines and spoil tips which is a reminder of a lunar landscape, one finds paradoxically a true tale of an impregnable wild countryside. For most people it is a symbol of an ecological catastrophe, same as the abandoned industrial complexes, former army training ranges or dense woods gobbled up by the bark beetle. But for nature they are untamed spots which bring with them a process of recuperation and self-preservation. And Czech nature can thank one more thing for remaining untamed: such a variety is to be found in just a few places on Earth. Just beyond our backyard we see everyday dramas of animals and plants taking place which tend to fascinate us in films that come from the far reaches of our planet. Swamps, jungles and deserts can all be found here. The film crew is setting out on a twelve month expedition in order to explore Planet Czechia. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)
