About event
🤰🏼 The elegant doctor Ingrid (Aňa Geislerová) works in the mid-1980s in a remote district hospital. Gripped by an exhausted marriage and a stagnant career, she devotes most of her time to her patients. It brings children into the world and ends unwanted pregnancies. They also sterilize Romani women without fully understanding the consequences. A new friendship with the young and immediate paramedic Agatha makes Ingrid see things in a different light. Will she begin to question the rules that she has so far been adamantly following? The impressive drama of Ivan Ostrochovský opens an unresolved chapter of Czechoslovak history, when the possibility of having children was decided by the state.

🔵 July 6 at 7:45 p.m.

🤰🏼 The film is set in the mid-1980s, when the state used its laws to continually influence the most intimate facets of its citizens' lives. Ingrid (Aňa Geislerová) is an ambitious doctor, whose mission is to bring children into the world, to terminate unwanted pregnancies, and to participate in the sterilization of Romany women. The melancholy woman has greater misgivings about her private situation than she does about her professional life, that is, until she is caught "off guard" by a new friendship with a charismatic Romany orderly. Spontaneous Agáta presents to Ingrid the human contours of a national minority reduced by the communists to a demographic problem. Ostrochovský's beguiling drama returns to a hitherto unresolved issue of Czechoslovak history, where the option of having children was determined by the state.
