“I hope everything turns out OK and you’ll get something out of this,” says coal miner Tomáš Hisem at the start of his shift in Ostrava’s Paskov Mine. With a sense of immediacy and in his own distinctive manner, he captures a particular place at a particular time — one day before the Paskov Mine is closed and he and 1,300 other coal miners lose their jobs.
