Vojtěch Strakatý’s debut feature “After Party” has debuted its international trailer (below) ahead of its world premiere in the Horizons Extra section of the Venice Film Festival. Film Republic is handling world sales.
The Czech film follows carefree 23 year-old Jindřiška, who discovers that her father owes a lot of money when debt collectors arrive to confiscate their house. In a single day, Jindřiška’s world falls apart, forcing her to choose between helping her father or saving herself before it’s too late.
Paolo Bertolin of the Venice selection committee said: “I thought this coming-of-age in one day [drama] had a very precise and convincing narrative structure, with a beautiful crescendo served by a discreet but eloquent mise-en-scène and an excellent leading performance. The final result is both fresh and thought-provoking.”
The film, which premieres on Sept. 3, stars Eliška Bašusová, Anna Tomanová and Jan Zadražil. It is produced by Marek Novák of Xova Film.
