The fraudulent Cold Call unexpectedly turns into an intimate conversation about loneliness and creative block. 4some with Your Parents playfully reveals what lies behind the fences of Germany’s neatly trimmed front gardens. Fittko: Resistance and Exile returns to Lisa Fittko’s youth and her resistance against Nazism. In The Lighthouse Keeper, Clive is cut off from the world after a storm, and a giant whale becomes his only hope. And The Tower is about the fear of losing oneself and the roles life sometimes thrusts upon us without asking.

Total duration is 85 minutes.

Films are screened in original language version with Czech and English subtitles.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the authors. The discussion will be held in English.

 

The winners are selected by a professional jury composed of female experts from the Czech Republic and Germany. The competition selection, which combines films from the best and largest festivals with promising discoveries, focuses primarily on works intended for adult audiences, but also gives space to films that appeal to children, teenagers, seniors, and other target groups. The festival thus transcends the usual boundaries – we are primarily interested in the quality of individual films.

Supported by the Czech-German Future Fund.

 

Online presale ends 15 minutes before the start of the screening. Unless the event is marked as sold out, tickets can be purchased on site.
