Modlany Akbar

Directing: Martin Dušek

Synopsis

Modlany, a village on the Czech-German border was discovered by Saudi Arabians, who plan to build more than 200 houses there. They are families with sick children who are coming to spend most of the year in a nearby spa town. In one of the most atheist regions of the most atheist country in the world, locals are preparing for a "muslim invasion". Indeed, somebody has buried several pigs' heads on the Arab-owned plots of land. Director Dušek (Into the Clouds We Gaze, 2014) wants to follow this “clash of civilizations” in the home of his ancestors from the very beginning with his typical mix of irony and empathy. Shootings are planned both in North Bohemia and in the Middle East.
