Screening | Czech Documentary: Helena Trestikova's Marriage Stories: Twenty Years Later - Marcela (2006)


Trestikova began an in-depth examination of the bonds between six newlywed couples, checking in with each pair periodically to track the course of their relationship. The resulting study aired on Czech television in 2006 as a four-part series. An unusually strong reaction from the viewing public to one individual in particular led Trestikova to extend the series with a fifth segment concentrating entirely on Marcela which won a prize for best European documentary at Sevilla Film Festival 2007. 82 min. In Czech with English subtitles.
