    • Synopsis
    • At almost 50 years, the neck tattoo FUCK OF PEOPLE [sic] is fading. René, an antisocial recidivist with a bright mind, doesn’t want to be behind bars anymore. He wants to live and perhaps even to love. René became publicly known in 2008 thanks to his film portrait by director Helena Třeštíková. What happened to René after the film? The most significant representative of the Czech time-lapse documentary films Helena Třeštíková brings the answer in the free sequel René – The Prisoner of Freedom, in which she observes the hero from the premiere of the film to the present.
