She regularly participates in festivals in Cannes and Venice with her films. As part of the retrospective, which also includes the premiere of her latest film, Club Zero, it is possible to observe how Jessica Hausner works more and more significantly with the stylization of image and sound and her distinctive, extremely dry humour.
The program section is held in cooperation with the Creative Europe Desk CZ MEDIA. The office in the Czech Republic represents the European Union program that supports European cinematography and the audiovisual industry.
