Mezipatra Queer Film Festival presents a program called Identity in the City during the Prague Pride. From Tuesday to Friday (August 8 – 10, 2019), anyone can attend the evening screening and participate in discussions on queer topics. The venue will be Kasárna Karlín and of course there is a café and a bar.
We invite you to the premiere of the first film in the distribution Queer Kino, which will take place on July 18, 2019 at 18:30 at the Lucerna Cinema. You will see the award-winning French drama Sauvage, which has impressed audiences around the world. Buy your ticket today!
The first film in our new distribution Queer Kino is award-winning French drama Sauvage, which has impressed audiences around the world. Now after the special premiere on July 18 you can see the film in your cinema accross the Czech Republic.
At the moment, there is no distribution in the Czech Republic offering exclusively queer movies to cinemas across the country. The audience is thus dependent on traditional distribution companies to include such films in their program which usualy offer them to selected cinemas only (alternative films often go solely to Prague cinemas). Therefore we are starting own own distribution label called Queer Kino.
Have you missed any of the short films during Mezipatra? Now you have a unique chance at Prague Quadriennale (PQ). We have prepared special screenings in cooperation with Neone where we will screen the best of shorts on June 10 from 8:30 p.m.
Apart from seeing the films The Nettle, The Rabbi, BobbyAnna, Hi, It's Your Mother, The Mess He Made nebo The World in Your Window you can also buy our merchandising there. Follow the FB event for fresh info.
We participate in the FILIP 20 event, which celebrates the twentieth birthday of a boy who committed suicide at the age of 14 because of the homophobic views present in the society. As part of this queer meetup, we will screen the successful film Love, Simon and a special selection of short films about queer children and families. We look forward to seeing you on March 24 at 6:00 p.m. in Kampus Hybernská (Hybernská 4, Prague 1).
