Our Lovely Pig Slaughter

Mord Tchéquie-Slovaquie 2024| Adam Martinec | vostEN | 84' | digital | Cast: Karel Martinec, Pavlína Balner, Miloslav Čížek, Aleš Bílík, Karin Bílíková

► Mention spéciale du Jury, Festival de Karlovy Vary 2024


For Karel, the annual pig slaughter on his family farm is a sacred tradition of revelry and feasting. This year, however, everything seems to unravel. The film offers an intimate, lively portrait of Czech temperament with visceral characters and biting humor reminiscent of Czech New Wave classics.

 

« Debuting filmmaker Adam Martinec delivers a probe into Czech identity and generational conflict set against the fading tradition of domestic pig slaughter. » (Cineuropa)

 

From ECHO.lu

« Martinec adeptly manages the storytelling logistics of four generations clashing within a single courtyard in an anatomy of a Czech family and Czechness itself. » (Martin Kudláč,Cineuropa)
