Born 1943, graduated from FAMU film school (1962-66), then, during the communist censorship, he made documentary TV programmes about sport and motorism, for not to be entangled into pro-regime agitprop. Since 1990 he created more than 60 authorial documentaries, mainly with ecological, psychological and social topics. In 1996 he published a book Democracy of Nature, and at the Masaryk University in Brno he is giving seminars of non-linear thinking. He is a co-author of the book Hidden Truth of the Earth (Zdeněk Neubauer, Tomáš Škrdlant, Mladá Fronta, Kolumbus Edition 2005).
