Occupation

6th November 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Voted the Best Czech Film 2021 by the critics, this black comedy thriller fuelled by vodka, cigarettes, and cowardice hilariously investigates Czech-Soviet relations.

After a premiere, the theatre group is celebrating in a bar when an uninvited guest crashes the party. A drunken Russian officer has come to sell a can of petrol, but soon the business transaction turns into a vodka drinking race. The Russian, interested in beautiful Milada and entertained by the comedic cowardice of the men, simply won’t leave…

Spinning out of control, the game becomes a trap, heroes become cowards and cowards become heroes. Influenced by Milos Forman’s The Firemen’s Ball with a touch of Tarantino and The Good Soldier Schwejk, this allegorical, pitch-black comedy delivers a highly original contribution to the topic of the invasion and is extremely relevant in today´s climate.

Followed by Q&A with director Michal Nohejl.
