On November 7, film Summer directed by a Russian Kiril Srebrenikov will open the 14th edition of Free Zone Film Festival in Kombank hall (Kombank dvorana). Film Summer was premiered on the Cannes Film Festival without the presence of the director who is in prison since 2017.

Music, love triangle and rebellion within the political system that doesn’t allow differences are the main motives of this movie which gathers splendid actors and soundtracks.

14th Film festival Free Zone will showcase the most interesting programme so far. Audience will have an opportunity to watch more than 50 movies which deal with various topics such as memories and facing the past, civil and personal disobedience to resistance and repression, as well as the rise of the extreme right in Europe and beyond.
On a personal level, actors of films from this year’s selection are questioning the authorities that the state and society imposes and try to find sense in a world that is increasingly facing institutional violence, corruption and erosion of democratic values and civil and personal freedoms.
