BĚŽNÁ SELHÁNÍ
ORDINARY FAILURES
Recently widowed Hana, confused teenager Tereza, and young mother Silva, who is doubting her motherhood skills, come together in ORDINARY FAILURES, based on the script by Klára Vlasáková, a writer and scriptwriter known for her distinctive voice and focus on complex female characters. With a strong soundscape and imaginative use of Prague's architecture, primarily its brutalist elements, director Cristina Grosan creates a retrofuturistic world where a trio of women at a crossroads searches for themselves as the world nears its end.
