Would you like to dazzle someone with your knowledge? Are you a heart and soul rocker? Do you think that gender is not just a modern fiction or maybe you just want to eat something for free?

The event takes place August 7-10 in the venue Kasárna Karlín (Prvního pluku 20/2, 186 00 Praha 8 - Karlín). Every day we start with the discussion from 7:00 pm and at 9:00 pm follows the screening of selected films. Free entry. All screenings and Friday's discussion are English friendly!
