Ice Queen

Love, family, sport, world, soul

Director: Adam Hobzik

Ledová královna

Dana is a world-class figure skater living and training in Communist Czechoslovakia. A complicated romance, however, keeps dragging her down, as does the dark past of her overbearing Mother.

To find freedom, Dana must face not only the demons of her relationships, but also Czechoslovakia’s Communist Party.

ICE QUEEN, the story of figure skater Dana, is loosely based on the life of Hana Mašková (1949–1972), Czechoslovak figure skater, European champion, and Olympics winner. Hana died at the age of 22 following a tragic car accident. The final story will be fictional and not picturing any actual persons or events.

Dana is unique. Exceptionally talented, breathtakingly beautiful. Coaches fight for her, fans flood her with letters. Through hard work and skill, she soon becomes a figure-skating champion, first in Czechoslovakia and then, later, in the world. At first glance, her life seems like a fairy tale. As it usually goes, though, a different story hides beneath the surface. God gave Dana many talents, but He put at least as many difficulties in her path. Deep inside, Dana is a sensitive, fragile being, and the obstacles she must overcome are of the hardest kind there is: relationships.
