Winning the Czech Lion Best Actor Award three consecutive times between 1995 and 1997, Ondrej Vetchy is a much-admired actor in the Czech Republic. Internationally, audiences know him through his role as the Gravedigger in KOLYA. Other recent film credits include ALL MY LOVED ONES (1999), and WHICH SIDE EDEN (1999). He graduated from the State Conservatoire in Prague in 1984 and pursued a career in film, TV and theatre.
