ESTE Filmul de Miercuri, together with F-SIDES Cineclub, presents on Wednesday 11 November at 20:00, at Cinema City Sibiu, the film "Panelstory, or How a Housing Development is Born", in partnership with the Czech Centre Bucharest. Directed by Věra Chytilová, the film is a social satire with black humour about the absurdity of communist urban planning, awarded the Grand Prize at the 1980 San Remo Film Festival. It is part of the programme curated by Anais Dragu, "Canon Event? Growing up in a changing country", developed under the guidance of curator Flavia Dima as part of F-SIDES Wildcards.
The film follows one chaotic day in a prefabricated housing estate in Prague, only partly completed, where the residents contend with mud, jammed doors, no water and thin walls. Rated N-15, with Romanian and English subtitles.
The project is organised by Asociația ESTE FILM, and F-SIDES Wildcards is co-funded by AFCN. Traditional partner: Marquardt. Media partners: RockFM, Zile și Nopți, Goodtime Magazine.
