Biography
Tomáš Vorel (b. 1957, Prague), director, screenwriter and occasional actor (long-term association with Sklep theatre). Following a series of amateur films and direction studies at FAMU, he debuted with the story showcase The Prague Five (1988). His second film, the unconventional period musical Smoke (1990), is today considered one of the most remarkable Czech films in recent decades.
He established VorelFilm in 1995, whose first offering was the acerbic comedy Stone Bridge (1996). The feature film Out of the City (2000) gave rise not only to the film To the Woods (2012) but also to the documentary Way Out (2002), which follows the lives of five individuals. Like Vorel's other films, the slapstick comedy The Elf (2005) is also portrayed via distinctive artistic stylisation. His comedies The Can (2007) and Uni (2014) were likewise huge hits with audiences.
