At that time, the media shocked us with the terrorist attack in Madrid. 9/11 came up into the minds very quickly.

Walking around in Prague, I suddenly felt a fear. Anyone can be the victim. All in sudden. But what can a single man do about it? Not really much...

I decided to shoot a shortfilm about how terror changes your life when you loose somebody. Not in the sensational way, how the issue is presented in the media, often forgotten by tomorrow, because of a new sensation. I looked for the quiet way that goes to the core.

I met the reactions of the people on terrorism. I was surprised, how less they seem to care and I thought, that the movie would also be a great opportunity to warn them. To open their eyes, so that they do something. I did not want my images to become reality.

Many things chanced since then.

I think was fooled.

During the two years, many governments declared war on terror.
They made laws to be able to collect and store our most private data. They can check e-mails, telephone, SMS and cellphone data, bank account and even locations of everyone very easy, and they will do it.
Iris scanners, electronic passports with fingerprints and low-ray personal scanners, that look through your clothes, cameras almost anywhere, are becoming reality.

The governments say that they create this Orwell's world for our own safety.

I would like to believe it, but does this really help to solve the problem of terrorism?

After two years of big efforts, the recent attacks in the London subway could not be prevented.

Why are personal data, collected by the government sold to private companies?
Doesn't the unstable situation in Iraq will raise the hate against the western culture? Who is responsible for this unstable situation?
Does it really help to control every common person under every circumstance, to prevent terror? Did this really ever worked, are the bad guys not always smarter than the system?

I do not like my fear, that I could die in the subway, because a bag exploded next to me.
But I do not like to live in a system, where I have no privacy anymore, either.

Who will guard the guards, then?
They are also human.
And what if the bad guys get to my data?

This is maybe another story for another movie...
