The festival premiere of the film The Architect of Brutal Poetry took place at the International Film Festival CINEMATIK in Piešťany. The film is now heading to an international audience – it will be presented in competition at one of Europe’s most prestigious architecture film festivals, the Architecture Film Festival Rotterdam (AFFR).
The official premiere will take place on October 5, 2021, at Kino Lumière in Bratislava, with the filmmakers in attendance.
The distribution premiere follows on October 7 at Kino Iskra in Kežmarok, near the birthplace of architect Hans Broos. Starting October 7, the film will be distributed to cinemas across Slovakia. Updates on additional screenings will be posted here regularly.
On October 9, 2021, a special screening will take place at Kino Úsmev in Košice – exactly 100 years since the birth of Hans Broos. We are pleased to celebrate this anniversary with a film screening introduced by producer Darina Smržová and director Ladislav Kaboš, who will meet the audience and answer questions.
