An extraordinary tale about strongly passionate and elegant architect Jan Kaplicky with a clear vision of the future who has the biggest fight on his hands in Prague again. Shot over three years in the UK, Czech Republic and Italy tells the powerful story of Jan Kaplicky, one of the most emotional figures in the world of architecture. His greatest unrealized architectural achievement, the new National library in Prague means the world to him. The project called the Eye over Prague is radical, exciting and far enough ahead of its time to provoke a fair degree of controversy. It represents a triumphant return to his homeland for the Czech-born émigré, a vindication of his uncompromisingly forward-looking philosophy and a tragically poetic ending to his remarkable career.

Jan Kaplický was an intriguing individual, and as an architect, he was underappreciated in the Czech Republic. In the documentary, it's very evident that he wanted to leave a mark in the Czech Republic, his homeland, but politics and perhaps even corruption simply wouldn't allow it. Even seven years after his death, it's still uncertain whether any of his magnificent buildings will be built in the country.

I am overrating a bit, but I don’t hide the fact that I am an admirer of Kaplický's work and a fan of his original, bold and progressive "Octopus". That is why this documentary is in line with my feelings and I regret very much that the construction itself did not take place in the end, if only to see Václav Klaus chained to the building (as he promised) – I believe that some nice place would have been found for that douchebag, and he could have chained Bem and Jakl to him, killing at least three annoying flies with one blow.

What more can I say? An attractive case handled by a couple of women who had no problem being right in the thick of it. The result is a pleasantly clear documentary mapping a topic that has affected the Czech media space for two years.
