Biography

Josef Kemr, a renowned Czech actor, entered this world on a warm summer day, June 20, 1922, in the vibrant city of Prague, which was then part of Czechoslovakia, a country that would later split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

Throughout his illustrious career, Kemr left an indelible mark on the world of cinema, starring in a diverse array of films that showcased his remarkable talent. Some of his most notable roles include his performances in "Give the Devil His Due" (1985),"Monkey's Playtime" (1978),and "Pevnost" (1994).

Beyond his impressive body of work, Kemr was also a devoted husband to his loving partner, Eva Foustková. Together, they shared a deep and abiding love that lasted a lifetime.

Tragically, Josef Kemr's life was cut short when he passed away on January 15, 1995, in the same city where he was born, Prague, Czech Republic. His legacy, however, lives on through the countless lives he touched and the memorable performances he gave.
