What About Petey?

The documentary What About Péťa? was filmed over three years using an observational approach. Director Martin Trabalík, who personally worked with Péťa and his father Petr Jochec, creates an intimate portrait of a family facing the joys and challenges of life with a child with disabilities. The film highlights the strength of human bonds, perseverance, and love that unites the family, while reminding us that health and presence are what matter most. It also opens a conversation about society’s values and the often unseen lives of families caring for children with special needs.
