SOME SECRETS
/ VÝLET
CZECH REPUBLIC 2002
Directed by: Alice Nellis, 100 MIN
Alice Nellis’ second feature film turns a family-trip into a whimsical
psychodrama that will make you laugh and cry: grandmother Valerie wants
to bury her son, who died in the Czech Republic, in Slovakian soil. On
the way there, longstanding conflicts between her, her daughter in law
and her two grown-up granddaughters emerge – but they are not the
only problems the family battles on their trip to the home-country: some
tragic-comic inner conflicts of the former Czechoslovakia, now fractured
by a border, are also laid open…
Caligari: 22.04. / 11.30 a.m.
Alice Nellis will be present (to be confirmed).
