The main section of Karlovy Vary will include a further six world and seven international premieres, with new films from six returning directors – two of whom have already won Crystal Globes for Best Film at the festival in recent years.

Krzysztof Krauze and Joanna Kos-Krauze, who won at KVIFF in 2005 with My Nikifor, will compete for the third time with the story of Papusza, the first Roma woman who published poems and confronted the traditional female role in the gypsy community.

Also competing for a second time at KVIFF will be Israeli filmmaker Yossi Madmony, who won two years ago with Restoration. His new drama, A Place in Heaven, looks at the father-son relationship against a backdrop of four decades of Israeli history.

Other KVIFF winners will also be in competition. Czech director Jan Hřebejk, who won the 2006 special jury prize for Beauty in Trouble, returns with psychological thriller Honeymoon, which follows Kawasaki’s Rose and Innocence to complete a loose trilogy.

Spanish filmmaker Xavier Bermúdez, whose Leon and Olvido won best director and best actress at KVIFF in 2004, brings love story The Value of Time.

Icelander Marteinn Thorsson, who directed 2011 release Rokland, brings his nightmare of alcohol and political corruption with XL.

Also included is family saga Sources of Life, by German film Oskar Roehler, and an adaptation of Ágota Kristóf’s novel The Notebook, directed by Hungarian director János Szasz.

French director Philippe Godeau tells the true story of “heist of the century” in 11.6 and Italian Roberto Andó brings political satire Viva la Liberta, starring Toni Servillo, recently seen in Paolo Sorrentino’s Cannes Competition entry The Great Beauty.

Lance Edmands’ debut Bluebird is existential look at a small-town community while Croatian director Vinko Brešan offers a parody on the theme of demographic growth in The Priest’s Children.

Competition selections from Greece and Russia focus no female heroines.

Penny Panayotopoulou, who first visited KVIFF with Hard Goodbyes: My Father in 2003, returns with a tale of loneliness and the fragility of human relationships in September.

In addition, Yusup Razykov of Uzbekistan will premiere his film Shame, a Russian civil drama about women waiting at a half-dilapidated military base in the Russian north for the uncertain return of their husbands on naval service.

KVIFF artistic director Karel Och said: “This year’s competition line-up offers an exciting mix of genres and styles with recognized filmmakers redefining their work and looking for new, often very unusual ways to tell stories.”

France, 2013, 102 min, International premiere
How is it that a security guy with an impeccable driving record managed to transport huge sums of money for ten years without any problem, and now he suddenly goes missing with more than eleven million euros in his van? Although it was the talk of France in 2009, director Philippe Godeau and François Cluzet, who plays real-life Toni Musulin, are more interested in the man’s motivations than in what happened to all that cash.

Bluebird /Ptáče
Director: Lance Edmands
USA, 2013, 90 min, International premiere
A tragedy strikes a small community in the state of Maine, but it is not entirely clear who is to blame. The oppressive weight of the story is deftly illustrated by the film’s evocative visual conception highlighting the wretched situation the characters find themselves in but which also allows love to filter through.

A Field in England /Pole v Anglii
Director: Ben Wheatley
United Kingdom, 2013, 90 min, Festival premiere
England, civil war. A group of men flee from a raging battle but they are captured and forced to take part in a hunt for treasure supposedly buried somewhere in a field. But before they start digging, they gobble up some strange-looking mushrooms and then everything goes pear-shaped. A beguiling piece with touches of mystery and farce.

Le grand cahier /Velký sešit
Director: János Szász
Hungary, 2013, 100 min, World premiere
A fascinating and hard-hitting adaptation of the controversial first novel by Hungarian writer Agota Kristof about 13-year-old twins forced to spend the last years of the Second World War with their cruel grandmother somewhere near the Hungarian border. The term bewitching was never so apt as in the case of this new film by renowned filmmaker and theatre director János Szász.

Líbánky / Honeymoon
Director: Jan Hřebejk
Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, 2013, 92 min, World premiere
A wedding is supposed to be a joyous occasion, but things can go awry. When an uninvited guest turns up at the church and later at the reception as well, the newly-weds’ day turns sour. Shadows of the past can blight the most sumptuous of banquets and rend the most affectionate of embraces.

Makom Be-Gan Eden / A Place in Heaven / Místo v nebi
Director: Joseph Madmony
Israel, 2013, 117 min, World premiere
Following Restoration, which won KVIFF 2011, Israeli filmmaker Joseph Madmony has turned in a masterful writer-director entry about a much decorated general who, years earlier, made a crucial mistake: with typical arrogance he exchanged his place in heaven for a plate of food. The central theme – a father-son relationship – is played out over the course of four decades of turbulent history in the State of Israel.

O ouro do tempo / The Value of Time / Hodnota času
Director: Xavier Bermúdez
Spain, 2013, 97 min, World premiere
Melancholy and humour characterise this tale of an aging doctor who, for over forty years, has been devotedly tending a bizarre “domestic grave” containing his beloved wife.

Poland, 2013, 128 min, World premiere
Bronisława Wajs (1908–1987), known as Papusza, is the world’s most famous Romany poet. Her life in Poland is swathed in mystery, and her talent for writing poetry brought her fame. Her own people, however, cursed her for having betrayed the secrets of ancient Romany culture and customs.

Quellen des Lebens / Sources of Life / Prameny života
Director: Oskar Roehler
Germany, 2013, 174 min, International premiere
Basing his work on his own novel, Herkunft [Origin], Oskar Roehler shot an autobiographical film in which the destinies of three generations confront German history from the postwar era up until the 1980s. As an unloved child of bohemian intellectuals professing the political clichés of the 1960s, the filmmaker projects his disenchantment onto a sarcastic image of society, while introducing a surprisingly subtle romantic tone to the proceedings.

September /Září
Director: Penny Panayotopoulou
Greece, Germany, 2013, 105 min, World premiere
Anna, a taciturn 30-something, lives in a small flat with her dog Manu, who means everything to her. After a distressing incident which disrupts her carefully guarded, secluded life, Anna attaches herself to the family of Sofia, a happily married woman and mother of two children. This personal and suggestive variation on the theme of solitude and the fragility of human relationships heralds the return to Karlovy Vary of renowned Greek author of the film Hard Goodbyes: My Father after an absence of ten years.

A young priest assigned to a community on a picturesque Dalmatian islet is appalled at its very low birthrate.

Viva la liberta /Ať žije svoboda
Director: Roberto Ando
Italy, 2013, 93 min, International premiere
It’s coming up to election time and the country’s biggest opposition party isn’t doing so well. Its leader Enrico Oliveri can’t take the pressure, and he disappears.

Thanks to his open-minded approach and forthright expression, the party starts to win popular support.

XL
Director: Marteinn Thorsson

A film which hovers on the edge of documentary and fiction as it describes the efforts of certain individuals to rise up against the former regime.

DK /
