Audience attendance and response to the film Lidice has surpassed everyone’s expectations. Moreover, the film is heading off to our soldiers in Afghanistan

Audience attendance and response to the film Lidice has surpassed everyone’s expectations. The numbers continue to rise, even in comparison to the first weekend (by 10%). 123 000 viewers have seen the Lidice already. Even with such difficult content, the film has held up against the foreign competition of long anticipated films. As Adam Dvořák adds with enthusiasm: “…we are number one again on the list of TOP20! Plus, we are presently preparing to show the film to the soldiers of our mission in Afghanistan, in cooperation with the Ministry of Defence of the CR. The impulse came from a viewer, who asked Petr Nikolaev by e-mail, whether or not it would be possible to send a poster of the film with the autographs of the film’s producers and a few words of support to an army unit, which her boyfriend is a part of. It seemed like she was asking for very little, so we got the idea to create a field cinema for field-like conditions. We would also like to send out a delegation of actors.”
Not only has the Czech Cultural Centre in Israel displayed interest in the film, but so has our Embassy in Washington, which would like to have the film for our fellow countrymen.
