Try to Name Those Things at the End or All Those Fucking 294,5 km

Martin Imrich / Czech Republic / 2022 / World Premiere / 16 min.

synopsis

Martin Imrich lives and studies in Prague. But he comes from South Moravia, where he makes a pilgrimage on foot to overcome the contradiction between “tím, kým jsem, a tím, kým jsu” (“who I am” in Czech and the Moravian dialect), as he says. His video diary, accompanied by a frank off-screen commentary, captures in fragmentary form the journey to the roots and the search for the meaning of such an artistic project.

“Vlašim and Benešov are the most disgusting places in the world, and I pity all the people who have to live there.”
