Alois Nebel + Q&A 18
It's 1989, in a small train station in the Sudetenland near the Czech-Polish border. A chance encounter with a sanatorium patient propels loner Alois Nebel on a journey into Central Europe’s dark post-war past.
Director Tomáš Luňák adapted his dark, atmospheric film from Jaroslav Rudiš and Jaromír 99's graphic novel of the same name. Employing a stark monochrome palette and stunning rotoscoped animation, ALOIS NEBEL is a hauntingly atmospheric tale of the Czech nation in transition.
We're delighted to be joined by director Tomáš Luňák for a talk after the screening.
In collaboration with, and organised by the Czech Centre London, the Czech and Slovak Society Sheffield, and the University of Sheffield's School of Languages and Cultures.
