Egy házasság története

Az egyik legkiemelkedőbb cseh dokumentumfilm rendező, Helena Trestíková a prágai FAMU (Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts) filmakadémiát befejezően negyven film elkészítését mondhatja magáénak. A nemzetkezi figyelmet a 2000-res években forgatott portréfilmjei nyerték el számára (René, Marcella, Katka). A három filmben közös, hogy az elnyomott emberi lét sivár történetei egyedi és lenyűgöző narratívába transzformálódnak át a filmvásznon.

Born in Uzbekistan, Askold Kurov has lived in Russia since 1991. He earned a degree in documentary filmmaking at Marina Razbezhkina and Mikhail Ugarov’s School of Documentary Film and Theater in Moscow. His films Winter, Go Away!, Leninland and Children 404 won critical acclaim and were screened at numerous festivals. His work focuses on human rights and social conflict in contemporary Russia.

A Marriage Story

One of the most important Czech documentary filmmakers, Helena Třeštíková has directed some forty films since graduating from Prague’s FAMU film school. Her latest trilogy of portraits (Marcela, René, Katka), shot in the late 2000s, brought her international attention. Masterpieces of editing, the three films confirm the filmmaker’s deftness at transforming the humdrum existence of the downtrodden into unique, fascinating narratives.
