Boldly original documentary about the “Czech Nan Goldin”, photographer Libuše Jarcovjáková transforming decades of photographs and diary entries into a fascinating cinematic self-portrait.
“This film is as much a tribute to the artistic process and curiosities of a photographer as it is a revealing portrait of her existence, forming an unconventional but deeply moving coming-of-age story.” (ICS)
“I’m Not Everything I Want To Be offers a profound and engaging documentary experience featuring Czech photographer Libuše Jarcovjáková’s stunning work and explores personal narratives amidst political and social upheavals.” (Film Fest Report)
.
“Fortunately, Jarcovjáková was also in the right place at the right time at several points in her life, available to capture the burgeoning fashion scene in Tokyo in the 80s as well as the fall of the Berlin Wall closer to home. It all makes for an absorbing portrait of a specific time.” (The Guardian)
“Subjects include the photographer in her bathtub, her printing factory job, her body post abortion, various lovers, colleagues and partying friends. The faces of those portrayed, including Jarcovjáková herself, are unbelievably beautiful, in all of their brokenness, their lines, their unconventionality.” (Film Fest Report)
