Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Godla is one of Slovakia's most prominent Romani actors; his casting deliberately subverts the country's film history of stereotyping Roma characters as background criminals.
The wheelchair stunts were performed by Hološka himself—a former stuntman who became paraplegic in a 2014 accident, lending the role uncomfortable autobiographical weight.
