Six years after the provocative documentary “Czech Dream” was greeted by enthusiastic public reception and a number of awards from around the world, a new full-length film from directors Vit Klusák and Filip Remunda, called “Czech Peace”, is coming to domestic cinemas on May 6. Like “Czech Dream”, this one will also be a documentary comedy, though this time the subject of the film is the controversy around the plan to build an American radar base in the Brdy Mountains. “With larger-than-life humor, ‘Czech Peace’ goes behind the public images to expose all the absurd conflicts around it. Everyone has heard or read about the radar, but we were there where it was happening with a camera to record the unexpected,” the creators explain. Despite or precisely because the American government cancelled the plan, the film still speaks to a current topic. “We believe this is a comedy about the character and quality of Czech democracy twenty years after the revolution,” they say. “The radar is mainly a phenomenon that divided Czech society. Top politicians and ordinary people speak side by side in the film. The first of these groups typically are recorded by history, though without the second group there would be no history.” In the film you will see Barack Obama, George Bush, Mirek Topolánek, Tomáš Klvaňa, Jan Neoral, Ivan M. Jirous, peace activists and the residents of Brdy, as well as a domesticated wild-boar named Jonaš. You will visit the Oval Office in the White House, the Pentagon and the clearings and woods around the Brdy elevation spot point 718. “It is a relief to laugh at self-centered politicians and at one’s own self,” Vit Klusák and Filip Remunda comment.
