Bells of Happiness<br />
by Marek sulik, Jana Bucka<br />
Mariena and Roman are cousins. They share one passion<br />
which has little to do with their everyday life –<br />
admiration of singer stars Karel Gott and Dara Rolins.<br />
They collect and exchange newspaper clips from<br />
tabloids, they rehearse together songs from the repertoire<br />
of their idols and borrow their identities under<br />
which they are known by their relatives and neighbours.<br />
In spite of all expectations, Mariena is Karel and Roman<br />
is Darinka (i.e. the girl is the male singer and the boy<br />
is the female singer). One day, they decide that they will<br />
sing their favourite hit ‘Zvonky šťastia’ and they will<br />
send it to Karel and Dara with their own video-clip on<br />
the DVD. For this project, they are accompanied by<br />
documentarists Marek Šulík and Jana Bučka. Thus, there<br />
arises a mutual play in which roles of protagonists and<br />
film-makers are exchanged, but also those of media stars<br />
and simple people from socially weaker classes.<br />

tHe front line<br />
by natalia orozco<br />
On February 17th of 2011, the first images of the Libyan<br />
civil upheaval travelled across the world. After 42<br />
years under Gaddafi’s rule, the international community<br />
stood in awe at a country profoundly divided. On the<br />
one hand there were those loyal to the Regime and on the<br />
other an improvised and inexperienced opposition.<br />
The conflict escalated as protesters turned into armed<br />
rebels, confronting the Dictator’s army. But beyond<br />
the front line laid the most fascinating face of the Arab<br />
awakening. During an entire year the filmmakers<br />
portrayed the struggle of five civilian leaders that head-<br />
ed a different resistance: one of ideas. Among them are<br />
Libyan journalists whose colleagues were killed during<br />
the early days of the revolution; long-time political<br />
prisoners that saw freedom within their grasp. Courageous<br />
women that took to the streets in support for<br />
the rebels also became characters in our journey. Artists<br />
that challenged censorship and became the voice of<br />
the revolution. Through intimate portraits the film ex-<br />
plores the contradictions that coexist in the Libyans long-<br />
ing for justice and freedom. The moving stories allow<br />
us to travel across a society where uncertainty governs the<br />
future and hope promises peace.<br />
