Everything ends and the 22nd year of Mezipatra has successfully reached the finish line. The closing ceremony of the queer film festival took place in Brno on November 20, where a total of 88 films from six continents were presented this year. During the ceremony, the audience award was announced. This year, it went to the Czech documentary The Law of Love, which was filmed by Barbora Chalupová and dealt with the topic of equal marriage in the Czech Republic.

The Art cinema hosted the screening of the TBH series, the first web series produced by Česká televize. Its ten episodes tell the story about the search for solid ground beneath one's feet not only after the traumatic event, but also in the turbulent teenage years under the omnipresent eye of social media.

The screening was followed by the a discussion with the audience.

We have added an additional screening of TBH scheduled for 16 November 2021 in the Art.

The Goose on a String Theatre is coming out in November as an LGBTQ+ friendly institution. The theatre will host the Mezipatra festival discussions with a focus on topics such as religion and sexuality, internationalized homophobia and also sexuality and identity in the changing modern age.

You can look forward to the winner of the main competition, Jumbo. Shy Jeanne lives with her mother and works in an amusement park nearby. Nothing much happens in her strange but rather quiet life..

You’ll find out in this film, which premiered at Sundance and won a Guilde Film Preiss at Berlinale, starring the amazing Noémie Merlant from Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019) as Jeanne.

You can also enjoy the latest film by one of the most talented directors of his generation, Xavier Dolan. Matthias & Maxime have been inseparable friends since childhood. But when they’re asked to kiss in front of a camera while shooting a student film, everything suddenly changes. What are their true feelings for each other? Yeas pass by, their paths diverge, but as their 30th birthdays approach, they must both make a decision which will dramatically affect their future.
