The Embassy of Greece in the Czech Republic organized the 2nd edition of “Greek Film Days in Prague” from 31 October until 2 November 2019.
Along with the Thessaloniki International Film Festival, as its creative partner, and with the generous support and sponsorship of Glebus Alloys, the Embassy of Greece proudly presented two movies and two documentaries, screened for the first time in the Czech Republic, that brought the best of contemporary Greek cinema to the Czech audience.
Furthermore, two of the films’ directors contributed presentations regarding their work: Nikos Labôt, director of “Her Job”, presented the Masterclass “Seeking Real- ism” in FAMU International, and Kostas Follas, director of “A Tree Remembers” participated in a Q&A session after the screening of the film. The Greek documentary “A Tree Remembers” presents the tragic story of Lidice, the Czech village that was eradicated by the Nazis in retaliation for the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich.
“Agora Greek Bistro and Food Market” graciously catered the opening reception of the 2nd edition of the Greek Film Days in Prague.
