Around 60 movies were submitted to our Open Call this year and we selected almost 10 of them for our programme.
We will be revealing selected movies gradually but the first one is Spanish feature film VALLDAURA: Young Architects in a Pandemic. In the middle of Natural Park in Barcelona, a group of young architects from all over the world live and study the future of ecological design. With the arrival of the COVID crisis, these students are confined in the middle of the woods, living out the problems of self-sufficiency.
This film will be shown as a part of the Festival Warm-Up on September 22 at the building of Faculty of Architecture on Czech Technical University in Prague.
11th edition of the festival will take place from 29/9 to 4/10 2022 in Prague and several other Czech and Slovakian cities.
As usual the festival will offer our audience a selection of contemporary films related to the topic of architecture and urbanism. It will expand with new projection spaces and increase the number of projections. There will also be discussions with the filmmakers and another special accompanying program.
This year’s central theme is Breaking Points in response to today’s turbulent times, which face a number of challenges such as population growth, access to housing, social inequality and the environmental crisis.
The jubilee tenth year of the festival is over and we would like to thank you for your support! We managed to sell out several screenings and we are very happy about that.
The festival is still growing and this year, in addition to twenty short and classic films, we also presented the simultaneous world premiere of the Dorte Mandrup film portrait.
We will be happy for any feedback that you can send to the e-mail produkce@filmarchitektura.cz
