This year we choose a country due to a very sad event for the world of film. On 13 April 2018, Milo\u0161 Forman<\/strong> passed away. He began his artistic career in his native Prague (then Czechoslovakia), and although deeply rooted in American cinema, his films are part of the canon of the Czechoslovak New Wave. The overview of national cinema at Camerimage 2018 <\/strong>is therefore dedicated to Czech cinema to contrast the achievements of the late master with new trends in the cinematography of his homeland. <\/span><\/p>\n Still from “The Firemen’s Ball”<\/em><\/p>\n Two films by Milo\u0161 Forman<\/strong> from the 1960s will be screened from restored digital copies: the Oscar-nominated The Firemen’s Ball<\/span><\/em> (Ho\u0159\u00ed, m\u00e1 panenko!<\/em><\/span>) from 1967 and Black Peter <\/em><\/span>(Cern\u00fd Petr<\/em><\/span>) from 1963. The programme will also feature a film by another recognised creator of Czech cinema, this time representing another generation: Jan Sv\u011br\u00e1k<\/strong>, who based his latest film Barefoot <\/em><\/span>(Po strni\u0161ti bos<\/em><\/span>) on the autobiography of his father, actor Zdenek Sv\u011br\u00e1k<\/strong>. <\/p>\n We close our presentation with a historical costume drama set in the Middle Ages, Little Crusader<\/em> <\/span>(Kriz\u00e1cek<\/em><\/span>) directed by V\u00e1clav Kadrnka<\/strong>, and the intimate psychological film Winter Flies<\/em><\/span> (V\u0161echno bude<\/em><\/span>) directed by Olmo Omerzu<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Still from “Little Crusader”<\/em><\/p>\n \n \u25cf Black Peter<\/em><\/span> (Cern\u00fd Petr<\/em><\/span>), dir.
