Local mayor Hana Sikorova is fighting to protect her small Czech village’s way of life from a powerful coal mining company. But when her daughter disappears, she and her estranged and violently disturbed husband Karel discover that there are darker secrets lurking beneath the surface of their remote community. As long-standing family relationships begin to disintegrate, Hana starts to doubt the integrity of every member of her town. Initially helpful in the desperate search for the missing Misha, the citizens of Wasteland soon begin to reveal their true colors. Set in the bleak landscape of northern Bohemia, blending social realism, intense psychological drama and a riveting mystery, this original production is visually powerful, grippingly atmospheric and deeply moving.
