About event
🎞️ The first will be associated with the projection of the film Vlčie Holes (Paľo Bielik, 1948). Under the fascist Slovak state, the society arrived for the systematic production of weekly and documentary films. The weekly was spreading with information and propaganda, but it also trained the first generation of Slovak creators. After the end of the war, they went with the camera to record and create a new world in the belief that it would be better and truthful than the old one. However, the political order soon started to collect its toll and under the red star was only a place for the aesthetics of socialist realism.
