Kino Lumière v spolupráci s Febiofestom prinášajú počas 2 týždňov 12 filmov, označené ako "Febiofest uvádza", ktoré sa stratili v Covide. Filmy, ktoré mali byť uvedené na Febiofeste 2020 a dlho čakali na svoju príležitosť aby sa dostali k vám divákom na veľkom plátne.
„FEBIOFEST rozložený v čase, aj tak by sme mohli nazvať, to, čo sa nám od marca 2020 deje. Nezažívame síce tú intenzívnu energiu, ktorá nás, organizátorov, ale verím, že aj divákov nadlho nabíja po niekoľkodňovom festivalovom maratóne, na druhej strane je fajn, že nám dohody s našimi zahraničnými partnermi dovoľujú zahrať festivalové filmy v termínoch, kedy najlepšie zaplnia miesta v alternatívnej distribúcii. Pozývame teda teraz divákov na niekoľko výnimočných titulov do partnerského Kina Lumière, na jeseň pokračujeme aj v ostatných kinách a kilmových kluboch, " hovorí výkonná riaditeľka Febiofest SK Ľubica Orechovská

Karel, Me and You reflects on the stability of relationships, the quandary of choosing a life partner, and on thirty-something life from both the female and male perspectives. Karel and Saša’s marriage has gone stale – so she moves out for a while and finds temporary refuge at Dušan’s, an old flame who played at their wedding. The film follows a series of meetings, conversations and minor incidents through which the main characters explore and examine the fleeting nature of relationships. Bohdan Karásek’s debut has been called the “the first Czech mumblecore”. As alias Miroslav Faderholz, the director plays Dušan: “I aimed to act like Ivan Trojan, but more naturally.” Show more

Based on the book Adults in the Room: My Battle with Europe’s Deep Establishment, the political memoirs of Yanis Varoufakis, the Greek economist, academic, philosopher and politician. Behind closed doors, a human tragedy plays out. A universal theme, a story of people trapped in an inhuman network of power. The brutal circle of Eurogroup meetings, imposing on Greece a dictatorship of austerity with utter disregard for humanity and compassion. A claustrophobic trap with no way out, exerting pressure on the protagonists and finally dividing them. A tragedy in the Ancient Greek sense: the characters are neither good nor evil, but rather driven by the consequences of their own conception of the right thing to do. A tragedy befitting our very modern times. Show more
