CARAVAN (Karavan)
In her striking debut, marking the first Czech feature to grace Cannes competitive section in over 30 years, Zuzana Kirchnerová presents a meditation on the subtle sacrifices of motherhood in this unconventional take on the traditional road movie.
Ester, played by renowned actress Anna Geislerová, is a single mother in her 40s whose time is spent looking after her disabled son David. Whilst staying with friends in Italy, tensions arise over David’s unpredictable behaviour and the two are relegated to a caravan. Longing for an escape, Ester and David make a spur-of-the-moment decision to steal the caravan, embarking on a haphazard road trip through Italy, where they meet a slew of characters and a kind-hearted drifter who helps Ester realise her worth beyond the confines of motherhood.
* Join us for drinks and nibbles from 6:30pm, ahead of a 7:30pm screening of the Australian Premiere of CARAVAN (Karavan).
