SCREENINGS
The forests are on fire! We know who's to blame! Only, nobody cares. A young biologist, Yura, witnessed the arson, but the local newspaper isn't interested. The disinformation fake-news serving the interests of corrupt politicians will have a bigger readership anyway. Nobody cares about facts; post-truth has become the new fashion. But Yura is not giving up. After all, the truth is more important than ever - especially with the Russian invasion looming. This absurd comedy and bleak socio-political drama was made in Czech co-production and premiered at the Berlinale Film Festival.
