When the curtain rises June 28 on the 54th edition of the Karlovy Vary Intl. Film Festival, there will be a conspicuous absence among the 12 titles selected for the main competition: Czech directors.
Yet despite a down year, Och believes Czech cinema is as vibrant as ever. “A new generation is becoming more and more visible, but of course that takes time,” he says. Now in his ninth year as artistic director of a festival that has long championed cinema from an often-overlooked part of Europe, Och finds himself at the creative helm as filmmakers from the region have become fixtures at the most prestigious festivals in the world.
The festival also collaborates with the Midpoint script development program and the Trieste film fest’s When East Meets West co-production market “to help empower scriptwriting and access to markets for projects that are in development phase,” says Rosak. One of the most compelling sidebars in this year’s program will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the former Czechoslovakia’s Velvet Revolution.
