Landa´s elixir of love
A drama called The Secret of the Golden Dragon (Tajemství Zlatého draka) premiered at the National Theatre in Brno in Autumn 2008. This documentary film is not focused on the evaluation of the play or its artistic merit. The filmmakers try to look into the transformation of Daniel Landa - one of the play's authors - from his status of a "skinhead bard" in the early nineties up to the present when he acts as one of the co-founders of the Golden Dragon Legion. Does his immense energy still involve some latent menace from his dark past or is he merely a showbiz star?
