SUMMARY:Mr Nobody Against Putin
DESCRIPTION:When Russia invades Ukraine\, schoolteacher Pavel “Pasha” Talankin becomes an unlikely dissident. In a small industrial town\, he is beloved by his students for his humor\, creativity\, and care. But as patriotic lessons\, military drills\, and state propaganda take over classrooms\, Pasha begins filming. \n\nOver two years\, he covertly documents the transformation of the school into recruitment grounds for war\, children drawn into the machinery of indoctrination\, and colleagues silenced under new repressive laws. What emerges is a gripping\, intimate portrait of life under a tightening regime and one man’s quiet courage. Haunted by his past and risking everything\, Pasha exposes the erosion of truth and the resilience of those who dare to resist from within\, even at great personal cost. \n\nAdmission: £5 (+ Eventbrite fee)\nBOOK NOW\n\nThe screening commemorates the four-year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine\, a poignant reminder of the ongoing struggle for peace and justice. \nIn collaboration with the Danish Embassy in London. \n\n\nDavid Borenstein\, Pasha Talankin\, Denmark\, Czech Republic\, Germany\, 2025\, 90’\, English subtitles

SUMMARY:UK Premiere: Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas
DESCRIPTION:“A fascinating\, as well as moving film\, bound to be a revelation for many people” – Marie-Aude Roux\, Le Monde  \nJoin us for the UK premiere of Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas. The documentary sheds light on Maria Callas’ life in Greece during her early years and her coming of age as a woman and as an artist in Athens during World War II and the years after 1957 when the internationally renowned diva reconnected with Greece.  \nThe Greek National Opera’s documentary\, conceived\, researched\, and written by Vasilis Louras\, directed by Michalis Asthenidis and Vasilis Louras\, and produced by Stella Angeletou\, brings to light valuable archival material and reveals\, for the first time\, the last rehearsal recording that Maria Callas made at her home in Paris a month prior to her passing.  Her foremost artistic achievements and little-known debuts\, the figures who influenced her\, and the major landmarks in her development as an artist are all explored – as well as  the prevailing social and political circumstances in Greece during World War II\, the Greek Civil War milieu of the 1940s and 19’50s\, and the unjust attacks she endured. These key narrative threads tell the story of the troubled\, novel-like life of Callas\, who always walked the line between tragedy and triumph.  \nThis documentary seeks to tell the story of Callas’ early years – the story of a triumph achieved through strength of character and talent\, hard work and dedication\, a story that saw her defy every difficulty and the abusive behaviour she faced. We are delighted that a discussion and Q&A with directors Vasilis Louras and Michalis Asthenidis and producer Stella Angeletou will follow the screening.  \nThe event is supported by AEGEAN\, the Hellenic Centre’s official air carrier.  \nImage credit: Still from the documentary Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas

SUMMARY:Poem of the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Ilhnat Fedorchenko\, a general in the Soviet army\, returns to his native village in Ukraine to find that it is about to be submerged as part of the reservoir for a new power plant that is being built nearby. Though most of the local workforce have left to work at the plant\, Ihnat finds that many of his old acquaintances have also returned to take a final look at the village. \nSolntseva directed Poem of the Sea from a script written by her husband Oleksandr Dovzhenko\, who died just before shooting was to begin. Though Solntseva maintained that her only intention was to fulfil her late husband’s intentions\, the film’s poetic exploration of memory\, transformation and modernity displays a talent for filmmaking that was all her own. Poem of the Sea is one of the classics of Ukrainian cinema.

SUMMARY:Czech Documentary Now: The Other One
DESCRIPTION:Marie-Magdalena Kochová’s debut portrays 18-year-old Johana’s internal struggle between her dreams and her duty to her family\, highlighting her silent self-sacrifice and the overwhelming weight of living for others. \nEighteen-year-old Johana has always been the dependable one—the quiet anchor in a family consumed by caring for her younger sister\, Rósa\, who has severe autism. As she nears high school graduation\, Johana faces an impossible choice: remain in her small Czech hometown to help her overburdened parents\, or finally step out of the shadows to study psychology and build a life of her own. \nIn her poignant feature debut\, director Marie-Magdalena Kochová crafts an intimate\, unflinching portrait of a so-called “glass child”—a sibling rendered nearly invisible by the needs of another. Through quiet observations and close-ups that reveal volumes in a single glance\, The Other One captures the silent struggle between love and self-preservation\, duty and identity. \nWinner of the MDR Film Prize for Outstanding Eastern European Documentary at DOK Leipzig 2024\, the film sheds light on the hidden toll of caregiving on young people\, offering a voice to everyone who has ever felt unseen. The Other One is not merely a coming-of-age story; it is a powerful testament to the courage it takes to choose yourself. \nDir. Marie-Magdalena Kochová\, Czech Republic\, Slovakia\, 87 min\, 2024\, Eng. subt.   \n\nAdmission: 5 (+ Eventbrite fee)\nBook here:https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/czech-documentary-now-the-other-one-tickets-1550514463499?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:Jiří Bartoška In Memoriam: Shadows of a Hot Summer
DESCRIPTION:To honour the late Jiří Bartoška (1947–2025)\, iconic Czech actor and longtime president of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival\, and to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War\, the Czech Centre presents a special screening of the digitally restored Shadows of a Hot Summer (Stíny horkého léta)\, a haunting post-war drama from legendary Czech filmmaker František Vláčil. \nSet in the Beskydy Mountains two years after the end of WWII\, the film follows shepherd Ondřej Baran (Juraj Kukura)\, who lives peacefully with his wife (Marta Vančurová) and two children on an isolated farmstead. Their quiet existence is shattered when a retreating band of Ukrainian nationalist paramilitaries—part of a guerrilla force fighting Soviet control—invades their home\, seeking refuge and medical help for a wounded comrade on their flight to the West. As the family is taken hostage—along with the local doctor—Ondřej is thrust into a moral and physical battle\, forced to protect his loved ones in the face of escalating violence and psychological torment. \n\n\n\n\n\nFeaturing a chillingly memorable performance by Jiří Bartoška in one of his darkest roles\, Shadows of a Hot Summer is a masterclass in suspense and visual storytelling. Vláčil applies the classical unities of time\, place\, and action to build mounting tension through muted performances\, stark camerawork\, and an unforgettable score by Zdeněk Liška—his final collaboration with Vláčil. \n\n\n\n\nWinner of the Crystal Globe at the 1978 Karlovy Vary International Film Festival andrecently restored for its 2024 KVIFF premiere\, this powerful ballad of moral resistance and quiet heroism remains as urgent and resonant today as ever. A psychological thriller wrapped in poetic austerity\, it stands as a lasting testament to the artistic legacy of both Jiří Bartoška and František Vláčil. \nFrantišek Vláčil\, Czechoslovakia 1977\, 100’\, English subtitles\nCast: Juraj Kukura\, Marta Vančurová\, Jiří Bartoška\, Gustáv Valach\, Robert Lischke \n\nAdmission: £7 (+ Eventbrite fee)
