Vlci na hranicích
Wolves at the Borders
This documentary follows its subject in a calm, low-key manner, comes close to them in everyday life and elucidates the motives for their actions. Some are looking for a life in harmony with nature and see the benefits for the ecosystem should the wolves return. The others see their life's work endangered, feel threatened and both permanently ignored and misunderstood by "those in Prague". The local council is under pressure to mediate. At first arguments are exchanged, yet the tone soon becomes coarser, at a certain point aggressive and ultimately irreconcilable. A gap opens up that is not adequately described by the terms urban and rural. Conspiracy theories make the rounds, people resort to comparisons with Nazi methods. The whole thing looks familiar. And thus it's no surprise that the wolf, also in recurring mystical observations of nature, remains elusive in the end. GL
