“The second chapter of the Czech Republic Film Festival has received an overwhelming response as all the tickets at Mid Valley had been fully redeemed and there are only a few tickets left here at Pavilion,” said Koh in her speech.

The opening film for CRFF 2018 is none other than the award-winning Barefoot, the war comedy film released last year in the European country that went on to win five Czech Lion Awards including Best Supporting Actor and Best Cinematography.
“Life is not always a fairy tale,” said the Ambassador of the Czech Republic, H.E. Rudolf Hykl, stating the reason why it was picked as the opening film even though it doesn’t exactly fall in line with this year’s theme of “Fairy Tales Stories from Fairy Tale Country”.
Although it took some convincing for its filmmakers to allow the film to be screened in Malaysia, the ambassador said that it was important that Czech Republic gets to share the film with Malaysian audiences to foster a better understanding between the two countries.
Other films that are included in this year’s line-up are Angel of the Lord 2, The Seven Ravens, Kooky and Adela Has Not Had Supper Yet, which perfectly highlight Czech Republic’s love of fairy tales; “we keep on watching fairy tales even as adults”, as the ambassador said.
