I'm Not Everything I Want to Be

Libuše Jarcovjáková is a legend of world photography and an unbridled woman who has defied all conventions. Her life is a mosaic of fascinating encounters and wild stories – from the rough underground of communist Czechoslovakia, to exclusive photo shoots for fashion leaders in Tokyo, to her dramatic escape to West Berlin, where she witnessed the fall of the Iron Curtain. Thousands of analogue photographs and pages of personal diaries were turned into a formally unique documentary directed by Klára Tasovská, which thrilled the audience at the Berlinale.

"A film like few others in domestic conditions offers a picture of past decades
with a very contemporary feel, through personal exploration and captured intimacy."
(Pavel Sladký, iROZHLAS.cz)
