The Valley of the Bees
A poetic film exploring the tension between freedom and fidelity, home and exile, through the lens of complex human relationships and moral dilemmas.
Petr Čepek (16 September 1940 - 20 September 1994) was one of the most distinctive Czech actors of the second half of the 20th century. He was among the founders of Prague's Drama Club, where he performed from 1965 until his death, accumulating over 120 film roles across his career. His striking features and deep voice made him a natural fit for demonic and conflicted characters, though in private he was known for an uncompromising sense of honour. He received the Czech Lion Award for Best Actor posthumously for his dual role as Faust and Mephistopheles in Jan Švankmajer's Faust (1994).
