The filming was notoriously intense. In a scene where Miroslav Etzler’s character beats Veronika with a belt, Etzler was so concerned about hurting the young actress that he struck his own thigh instead to create the sound and movement, leaving him covered in bruises by the end of the day.

Rarely does a teenage performance in a television anthology define an actor's career the way Tatínkova holčička defined Berenika Kohoutová. In the landscape of 2008 Czech television, the episode was a dark horse that revealed the network's ability to produce high-quality, issue-driven drama. Yet, it is Kohoutová’s heartbreaking transformation from a carefree girl to a traumatized teenager that makes the episode "better" than the rest. Watching it today, one does not see a young actress pretending; one sees an artist who, at seventeen, was already willing to look into the abyss of human nature and present it truthfully. It is a performance that has not only aged well but remains the gold standard for the series.
The heartbreaking contrast of a broken family finding stability, only for it to be an incubator for abuse.
