New film looking at life of documentarian Koutecký premieres

A new documentary about the late Czech documentary maker Pavel Koutecký is set to receive its premiere in Prague on Tuesday night. Jana Počtová’s film, entitled Fragmenty P.K. (Fragments of P.K.), maps the life and work of Koutecký, who was killed in 2006 before completing one of the most successful Czech documentaries of recent years, Občan Havel (Citizen Havel), a portrait of the former president. Koutecký died after falling from an uncompleted Prague skyscraper at the age of 49.
