The film „The Smuggler” is the conclusion of a long-term project Blissful Dreams Dyed, which consists of 9 trips with 9 people, to one place - on the border area of a certain city. All routes, the events, conversations and stories that took place during trips, became the base for the screenplay of „The Smuggler”.

The actual work on the film had a flexible, open structure. Some parties assumes the form of interviews, or monologues, while others oscillate between consciously created role and a performance. The project’s participants have received a lot of flexibility in creating theirs own character of expression in the film. Thus, this way of working assumed the possibility of numerous changes in the script. Therefore also work on The Smuggler was focused on the principle: action-reaction.

The film refers to tracking the convergence of networks created within the framework of an unexplained conspiracy. The action of The Smuggler develops around words spoken by one of the nine travelers: „Blood is almost chlorophyll”.
