Ema a Smrtihlav / Ema and the Death's-head Hawkmoth

Writer and film director Peter Krištúfek uses dynamic narration to move his stories towards an unexpected or even absurd ending. He depicts everyday life from the point of view of the consistent individualist with unusual habits and pastimes, or in the thematically attractive setting of today’s media, advertising and art. He reflects on basic issues from his mature point of view; he picks out the most momentous chapters from the past and compares standpoints. Unique wit, black humour, elements of tension and unexpected punch lines make his fiction attractive to the reader.
