The 34th FilmFestival Cottbus presents The Female Gaze: New Films from the Czech Republic

I AM NOT EVERYTHING I WANT TO BE

In TINY LIGHTS (Beata Parkanová, CZ, SK, 2024, 76 min), six-year-old Amálka experiences a major change during her summer vacation that tears her out of her childish fantasy world. YEAR OF THE WIDOW by Veronika Lišková (CZ, SK, HR, 2024, 109 min) follows the grieving widow Petra through the seasons and phases of her loss. In LIMITS OF EUROPE (Apolena Rychlíková, CZ, FR, SK, 2024, 98 min), journalist Saša Uhlová goes undercover to shed light on the harsh conditions for economic migrants in Europe and questions the costs of prosperity. There is also a great short film program.

YEAR OF THE WIDOW

The series will be complemented by the exciting “Panel on the study: The role of women in the Czech film industry” on Thursday, November 7, at 5 pm at the Glad-House, moderated by Lenka Tyrpáková (language: English). The filmmakers of the series will be joined by the authors of the study.

“The Female Gaze: New Films from the Czech Republic”, supported by the Czech-German Future Fund, invites audiences to experience outstanding and forward-looking female voices in Czech cinema and participate in a dialog about the importance of female perspectives in the European film industry.
