Award-winning filmmaker Martin Dušek employs a comedic approach to raise serious questions surrounding the post-WWII expulsion of Czechoslovakia’s large German minority in his latest work, “Mein Kroj” (“Mein Folk Costume”), a half-hour documentary set for broadcast on public channel Czech Television this weekend.

This year’s Days of European Film festival is bigger than last year’s, with highlights including Ralph Fiennes’s updated take on ‘Coriolanus,’ a dialogue-free look at the Balkan wars and a Danish costume drama shot on Czech locales. The European Commission’s annual topic, aging, has its own section, as do films that promote the EU goal of diversity.

A lack of transparency, a lack of planning and collaboration, a lack of vision: these are some of the obstacles hindering solutions to Prague’s urban issues. But two connected initiatives - UrbanACT, a student-led effort encouraging the public to ‘Act for your city’ and ReSITE, an international festival scheduled for this May – are aiming to help lead the city toward a better urban future.

The Groovy dada lounge revisited is an exhibition of recently rediscovered photographs by Robert Carrithers documenting New York City’s early ‘80s bohemian underground that centered around the legendary Club 57. The show includes portraits of artists Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat at the very outset of their meteoric rises to fame, as well as numerous other artists and club-goers.
