Done! Claimed the makers of the film entitled "Lidice" a few weeks ago. But even at this moment in time this is not exactly true. The assassination of Heydrich is now scheduled for filming on Wednesday, the 27th April in Prague 4, on Hoffmann Street, which is closest site visually to contemporary photographs of the actual location of the assassination. The date of the premiere - 31st May - remains unchanged. The principal partner in the film is Česká zbrojovka. Thus a scene will be completed that had been omitted from the original screenplay due to lack of funds. The reasons why this scene will be shot at the last minute, is explained by the film's producer, Adam Dvořák: "We decided to take this unconventional step following consultations with the U.S. distributor. We wish the film to also be fully understood by a global audience that may not be knowledgeable concerning European historical events and the Lidice film will also thereby gain a higher level of action and an additional spectacular dimension. I truly appreciate the fact that prior to the Gala Premiere launching the film, the distributors, not only those from the United States but also from Asian countries, expressed their interest in a tangible manner." Another unusual bonus is the soundtrack, created under the direction of Michal Hrůza, that should specifically help to make the topic of Lidice relevant for the younger generation. This is not the film music on which Hrůza worked with James Harries. The soundtrack is effectively a separate project, containing modern pieces interpreted by some very well-known artists - for example, Lucie Bílá, Aneta Langerová, Michal Hrůza and the Divokej Bill band.
The CD, with the title Lidice, will be released on the 7th May, in a limited number of copies and will be available for purchase through the PNS network for CZK 69. Definitely an added bonus will be the attached voucher for a free ticket to "Lidice" when it is shown in the Cinestar network.
