A month before its opening, the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival organizers have unveiled the official line-up for this year’s 59th edition. Two Czech films—Broken Voices and Better to Go Mad in the Wilderness—will compete in the festival’s main competition. Another Czech title, On the Other Side of Summer, will appear in the Proxima section.
Broken Voices (Sbormistr in Czech), directed by Ondřej Provazník, stars actor Juraj Loj as a choirmaster whose character is loosely inspired by Bohumil Kulínský—the once-celebrated conductor of the Bambini di Praga choir, who was later convicted of sexually abusing underage girls in 2009.
