Štěpán Pech's poetic documentary builds an intimate homage to the most famous Czechoslovak artist of the beginning of the millennium. Ján Mančuška died tragically at the age of 39. He exhibited at MoMA and Center Pompidou, but he did not receive comparable attention in his homeland. In the vast body of work he left behind, it's as if he tried to reverse time - but ended up turning it against himself. The principle of absence - telling what is not in the picture - unites Mančuška's work and his portrait, a cathartic reconciliation with the man who left a devastating hole in the family, art and cultural landscape.
