His untamable talent brought him from the East-Slovakian Kojšov to the sunlight of European cinematography. A fierce experimenter with the magic of optics, a cruel and loving illusionist, through his films he got a nickname of the “Slovak Fellini.” Together with Dušan Hanák and Elo Havetta he has literally created the Slovak modern cinematography. But the revenge of the normalizers did not miss him, either. In the seventies he was displaced from creating documentaries and only later in 1983 was he back in the game of poetics with his A Thousand Year Old Bee (Tisícoročná včela, 1983). In the nineties he relocated with his wife Deana Horváth-Jakubisko to Prague and together they founded the present company Jakubisko Film. Its last production is a whirlwind historic fresco Bathory (2008).
