‘It was clear to me Lenka wasn’t just choosing to stay on meth because it was a comfort in a lonely and isolated life, but because it was central to it.’ Photograph: Barbora Benesov I was researching ideas for a documentary when a friend told me about a village in a rural region of the Czech Republic.

Síla naděje - Barbora Walterová Benešová
O knize Síla naděje Bylo mi teprve pětadvacet, chtěla jsem žít a hlavně si užívat. Myslela jsem si, jak moc jsem dospělá. Byla jsem matka a vedle sebe jsem neměla muže, ale kluka.

Mám pocit, že mě to rozežírá zevnitř, nemohu polykat. Nikdy jsem takovou bolest nezažila. Nevím, proč to potkalo zrovna mě.
