Cinematographer Martin Žiaran (b. 1976) has worked several times with directors Peter Bebjak and Jiří Mádl. With the latter, he made the epic film Waves, set in the turbulent times of the late 1960s when hopes for a freer Czechoslovakia were shattered by the Soviet invasion. The film is set in the international news office of Czechoslovak Radio, where a group of passionate journalists spread the ideals of democracy and progressive, honest journalism.
