Personal Stories to Be Presented in Cannes
Caravan —
Czech director Zuzana Kirchnerová won in the Cinéfondation section at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival with her graduation drama Bába (2008), which tells the story of a granddaughter and her dying grandmother. She is now returning to Cannes after being selected for the L'Atelier programme to present her upcoming film Caravan (Karavan). At Marché du Film, another Slovak minority film will be presented – Saving One Who Was Dead (Správa o záchrane mŕtveho) by director Václav Kadrnka. A bit earlier, in June, the festival in Annecy world-premiered two Czech animated films, both also co-produced by Slovakia.
