Wolf Trap (Czech: '''Vlčí jáma''') is a 1957 Czech drama film by Jiří Weiss, based on the 1938 Jarmila Glazarová's novel of the same name.[1]
Orphaned 18-year-old girl Jana comes to live with a childless couple – Robert and Klára, his much older wife. Robert falls in love with Jana.
The film was shot in Sobotka and Stromovka park in Prague. Interior scenes were shot in Hostivař Studios. The first choice for the role of Jana was an actress Jana Rybářová, who committed suicide before the start of the shooting.
