Summary
Slovak director Július Matula drew inspiration from Pavol Dobšinský’s stories to create this children’s film, co-produced by Gottwaldov Film Studio (now Zlín) and Koliba Film Studio in Bratislava. Young lumberjack Ondra sets out from his home village on a quest to find fear – something he has never felt in his life. On his many adventures, he is accompanied by a former bandit, talkative and cowardly Ferko (played by Ondřej Vetchý, as one of the many Czech actors in this simple story). Slovak actor Ján Kroner stars as Ondra, while compatriot Zuzana Skopálová plays the princess. Polish actress Katarzyna Figura stars as the Black Lady.
