Valentine's Movie Night: The Law of Love

14/02/2022 | 18:30

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a good movie! Join our online movie screening of the documentary The Law of Love which shows the background of efforts to promote the marriage equality in the Czech Republic. All proceeds will be donated to the Jsme fér initiative.

For batch registration and payment, please contact Sabina at [email protected].

 

Description

Barbora Chalupová, co-director of the successful Caught in the Net, tracks activists from Jsme fér as they strive towards a ground-breaking decision that would make Czechia the first former Eastern bloc country to institute “marriage for all”. The film follows the society-wide debate, including Prague Pride, televised clashes and parliamentary discussions aimed at a crucial vote. Czechia likes to come across as a liberal, open country, where everyone at least tolerates everyone else, but a cursory glance below the surface shows a more complex, much less friendly, reality. A clash between the progressive and conservative parts of the populace is inevitable even here, and sometimes the proverbial “tolerance” doesn’t cross the boundaries of mere statements.
