Forest Killer

This minimalist crime drama follows the last year in the life of one of the most famous Czech serial killers, Viktor Kalivoda. In 2005, he murdered three random passers-by in the woods. The forest killer, as he is nicknamed, worked as a policeman, won the competition "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" and had an above-average IQ. The case received a lot of attention not only because he planned to shoot up the Prague metro but also because he never fully revealed his motive. Can we ever understand what was going on in his head? The film is based on real events. (Vernes)
