Background: A graduate in Film Production at Prague's Film Faculty - Academy of Performing Arts (FAMU), Karla Stojakova co-founded Axman Production with Ivana Axmanová in 2000 to make feature films, documentaries and short films for the wide international market. She made her first foray into producing feature films with Julius Ševčík's RESTART (Trailer) in 2005 and has also co-produced such successful festival films as Norwegian director Lilja Ingolfsdottir's OBLIVION or Icelandic filmmaker Grimur Hakonarson's SLÁVEK THE SHIT or Jeanne Rektorik's short ORLOJ. In 2009, her production of Ševčík's NORMAL - THE DÜSSELDORF RIPPER (Trailer) won the Best Director Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival. In addition, Karla has line-produced for Korean feature films, TV drama and music videos and provided film services for foreign productions shooting in the Czech Republic. She is also the founder of the first film festival on Asian cinema in Prague - FILMASIA.
