Scene from »Hoří, má panenko« (The Firemen's Ball)
Like every first Wednesday of the month, on June 7th at 8 p.m. we will be showing a Czech film classic in the "Czech Film Wednesday" series in the central cinema. This time Miloš Forman's bitter satire »Hoří, má panenko« (The Firemen's Ball) from 1967 is shown.
A fire brigade ball in Vrchlabi turns into a complete fiasco: everyone lets themselves be mercilessly flooded and behaves accordingly. For a spontaneous beauty election, candidates must be "won" quickly. However, they are so reluctant that in the end an even more stupid solution is found. As the festival progresses, more and more of the raffle prizes disappear. Nobody here seems to have any qualms about helping themselves. At the peak there is a fire alarm...
In the run-up to the Prague Spring, Miloš Forman shot this evil satire of everyday life in his homeland. The idea came to him after attending a firemen's ball in Vrchlabí. The censors interpreted the film as a criticism of the system and banned it after three weeks. However, he went abroad, became internationally known and was even nominated for an Oscar in 1969.
Selected Czech Republic on May 24, 2023: Nela Rywiková - Children of Rage
On Wednesday, May 24th, 2023, at 7.30 p.m., the Czech author Nela Rywiková will read from her book "Children of Anger" in the Dresden Central Library.
On a run-down railway site in Ostrava, two boys find a corpse prepared like a hunting trophy. The police investigations lead into all social strata of the city, into high political circles and into nouveau riche entrepreneurs, into prostitutes and into broken families. The author skilfully links a murder case in the present with a German-Jewish family history that goes back many decades and shows how easily a person can fall victim to anger, history and a suppressed past. A social panorama as an excursion into the hell of the present.
Nela Rywiková, born in Ostrava in 1979, is one of the most interesting new names in Czech crime fiction, which is experiencing a kind of renaissance. Her debut novel Dům číslo 6 (House Number 6) was published in 2013.
Cooperation between: Czech Literature Center (Moravian State Library), Czech Center Berlin, Salon of German-Czech Dialogue, Staatsschauspiel Dresden and the Department for European and International Affairs of the state capital Dresden. Under the patronage of the Consul General of the Czech Republic in Dresden.
