 In Holy Moly!, three friends mark their last evening together by stealing a cross. Meanwhile, an Indian filmmaker at Prague Zoo asks over the phone, Amma, Do Giraffes Cry? The line between personal freedom and sacrifice for others is explored in Our Walls. In Unleaded 95, relationships fall apart under the pressure of jealousy, desire and fear of loss. And in A Sparrow’s Song, music brings hope back to a widowed woman during the war.

 

Amma, Do Giraffes Cry? (dir. Kartikeya Saxena, 2026, 26 min, Czechia)

Total duration is 90 minutes.

Films are screened in original language version with Czech and English subtitles.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the authors. The discussion will be held in English.

 

The winners are selected by a professional jury composed of female experts from the Czech Republic and Germany. The competition selection, which combines films from the best and largest festivals with promising discoveries, focuses primarily on works intended for adult audiences, but also gives space to films that appeal to children, teenagers, seniors, and other target groups. The festival thus transcends the usual boundaries – we are primarily interested in the quality of individual films.

Supported by the Czech-German Future Fund.

 

Online presale ends 15 minutes before the start of the screening. Unless the event is marked as sold out, tickets can be purchased on site.
