Description
A power struggle in the domestic space. By Eva Lammelová for Czech Radio (2018) According to numerous statistics, Czechs are a nation of dog-lovers. On average, there is a dog in every second household in the Czech Republic, resulting in the most hounds per capita in all of Europe. In Eva’s house there’s Tonča. Tonča is Eva’s French Bulldog who lives with her and her husband in Prague’s Vinohrady district. She wants to sleep with them in their bedroom so badly that she stakes her claim by barking at their bedroom door and leaving little puddles of protest. Eva’s husband, however, is strongly against it. What do you when you have a dog at home with separation anxiety? ‘Man: A Dog’s Best Friend’ was a runner up for Best Documentary at the Prix Bohemia (2019) Editor: Brit Jensen Sound: Jiří Slavičínský Director, screenwriter, and producer Eva Lammelová (1986) studied sociology and andragogy at Palacký University in Olomouc, as well as film and theater science.
