Scala na provázek.dvoře: Caravan Film Screening

Forty-five-year-old Ester is completely absorbed in caring for her son David, who suffers from severe intellectual disability. A trip to Italy to visit friends becomes an opportunity to escape the suffocating routine – yet a change of scenery does not alter the fact that life with David is not simple.

Ester impulsively decides to start up an old caravan that was meant to serve as their holiday home, and transforms it into an instrument of freedom. A journey through sunny Italy becomes healing for both of them, and Ester rediscovers – if only for a moment – the person within herself who has the right not only to give love, but also to receive it.

An intimate road movie that, after more than thirty years, brought Czech feature film back to the screens of the prestigious Cannes Festival, touches on themes of physicality and soul, freedom and surrender, hope and helplessness.
