Very good Czech thriller

The filmmakers in my country are usually not good in telling crime stories. As far as I know we had last 20 years only 2 good thrillers - Sametovi vrazi (directed by Jiri Svoboda), about series of homicides and Requiem pro panenku (directed by Filip Renc) about true story about terrible consequences in the asylum with mentally retarded people. Hodinu nevis (You don't know hour - in the meaning - you can't be sure with time of your death).

The story is about young man who works in the hospital somewhere in the Czech Republic as an ambulance attendant. Once upon a time he tried to be a doctor, but he wasn't accepted. But now he works in the same hospital like doctor from his commission. One time is asked by his old sick patient for the big favour...death.

The story is based on true events, but the creators must change many things, because of lawyers real participants. Eventually they make them really good service. The movie is about real relations in Czech health service and about good and evil in general.

The director Svatek is very interesting young Czech filmmaker and the cast in the movie is really amazing. I am sure, that this movie can works in the abroad and I wish you to see it, but be sure...this movie is really scary, in the best meaning of this word.
