A Promise of Eastern Exotica Is Not Enough Martin Hollý’s Night Riders (Noční jazdci, 1981) has become already the fourth Slovak classic film that world premiered at one of the most prestigious classic film festivals – Lumière Lyon. Every year since 2017, the festival has selected one of the recently digitally restored Slovak films. The selection by such a film festival is a recognition of excellent work done by Digital Audiovision Department of Slovak Film Institute, which is represented at international fora by Rastislav Steranka, director of the National Cinematographic Centre of the Slovak Film Institute.
