The phenomenal writer Simona Monyová was one of the best-selling Czech authors. A new six-part series produced by Oneplay Original traces her life’s journey from her first written lines, through her fame as a best-selling author, to her toxic second marriage, which ultimately ended tragically for her. Tereza Ramba stars in the lead role of this highly anticipated new series. The creators of the new series faced a major challenge from the start – they didn’t want to create yet another true-crime series about Simona Monyová as a victim. Instead, their goal was to portray the author as a woman who was firmly convinced she could handle everything: being an excellent mother, a wonderful wife, a sexy goddess, and a successful businesswoman to boot. At the Serial Killer Festival, the series won the Primetime Killer Award for Best Series from Central and Eastern Europe, and Tereza Ramba, who plays Simona Monyová, won the Harper’s Bazaar Award for Best Female Performance. The series was also selected for the Berlinale’s prestigious Berlinale Series Market. It also received an award at the Melbourne Independent Film Festival in Australia. (OnePlay)
