„Iný“ Prezident

20150829_111514

SK / Mladý Čech Vít mal sen. Počas letného výletu na Balkán založil nový štát a stal sa jeho prezidentom. Krajina Liberland bola najprv kuriozitou, o ktorej písali všetky veľké médiá, medzinárodne neakceptovaná, položená na často zaplavovaných výbežkoch Dunaja, utópia, odsúdená na zánik. Vít Jedlička do nej však vkladal všetko.

Ako vyzerá Liberland a Vítov život 8 rokov neskôr? Autorka Katarína Urban Richterová sleduje príbeh Liberlandu a „iného“ prezidenta Víta Jedličku v čase.  Koľko investoval prezident do svojho odvážneho sna, ako sa v priebehu rokov tento sen menil a stálo to za to? 

ENG / A young Czech named Vít had a dream. During a summer trip to the Balkans, he founded a new country and became its President. The country, Liberland, was initially seen as a curiosity — covered by all major media, unrecognized internationally, located on frequently flooded banks of the Danube, a utopia seemingly doomed to disappear. But Vít Jedlička poured everything into it.

What does Liberland — and Vít’s life — look like eight years later? Author Katarína Urban Richterová traces the story of Liberland and its ““President”, over a number of years. How much did the president “invest” in his bold dream? How has that dream evolved over the years — and was it all worth it?
