Viktor Tauš

Nursed by 35mm and VHS, as a director/producer Viktor Tauš grew to desire to create both, artistically compelling and commercially successful films. The short "Eleanor Rigby from the Lesser Quarter", (Bronze Knight Moscow IFF 1996, 1st Prize Madrid IFF 1996); full length features "My Detox" - "the most significant debut of post communist decade" by critics, "The Great Thaw" - seen by over 6% of the Czech nation in theaters only; international co-production "Clownwise" - intended to combine the experiences, it represents director's first reach for the international market.

Proud member of what Cahiers du Cinema calls the do-it-yourself generation Viktor also produces films by filmmakers he admires. The award winning film by Zuzana Liova, „House" (premiered at Berlinale's Forum section 2011, winner of Palm Springs Festival 2011, Variety Critics Choice 2011, etc.), „Honeymoon" directed by the Academy Award nominated director Jan Hřebejk (the Best Director Award at Karlovy Vary IFF 2013, Toronto IFF, Pussan, etc.) Viktor was selected as the "Producer on the Move" representing the Czech Republic at Cannes 2013.
