DAYS OFF is an homage to (Czech) puppet film and (Czech) cities. By combining puppet animation and live action, it builds a certain strange kind of reality, a reality that is based in the real world. It is an audiovisual testimony using the language of surrealism, satire, parody, irony and gallows humor, a dark mirror reflecting today’s world.
Filip Blažek was born in Prague and studied stage design and animated film at FAMU. DAYS OFF is his debut film. He occupies himself with commissioned work and animated content for online television.
