In addition to the so-called collective portraits, Drahomíra Vihanová also captures distinctive individuals - for example, she made films about the director František Vláčil or the piano virtuoso František Rauch. This series also includes a portrait of the singer Eva Olmerová, The Changes of Eva's Friend. This film met with a very contradictory audience response after its completion. Here the director attempted to capture the form of a human being, the ups and downs of an undoubtedly brilliant singer. The empathetic viewer will soon understand that this film is like life itself: it is harsh, loving, there is an irritating volatility, a restlessness of the soul, reconciliation, compassion, humility and passion. And this applies not only to the filmed Eva Olmera, but also to the director Vihan.
