Description was written before the event

The only directorial work by actor Charles Laughton is among the most acclaimed classics of American cinema. Despite being poorly received by critics and audiences upon its release, and despite Laughton never returning to directing, the film gradually gained a reputation as a visionary work with one of the most chilling narratives in cinema history.

About the venue: Kino Aero

Kino Aero is a cult single-screen art-house cinema in Prague's Žižkov district and one of the oldest film clubs in the Czech Republic. The functionalist building, designed by architect Jindřich Freiwald, opened on 10 November 1933. After a renovation and reopening in 1998, it became a key centre for independent cinema. It screens over 60 titles monthly, including director retrospectives, pre-premieres, late-night screenings, and themed film series. The hall seats 336 and offers simultaneous translation.
