A Few Words about Disobedience

director: Míša Weingartová, Tereza Langrová
original title: Pár slov k neposlušnosti
country: Czech Republic
year: 2018
running time: 9 min.

synopsis

In the Czech Republic, where democracy is on the decline and a populist movement rules, it may seem as if the issue of climate change has been relegated to the background. The environmental initiative   Limity jsme my / The Limits Are Us uses civic disobedience, whereby the participants knowingly break the law, to draw attention to this problem. Disobedience, which traditionally bears a negative connotation, is a path towards emancipation and change.

biography

Tereza Langrová (1994) and Misha Weingartová (1990) chose the topic of Klimakempu and civil disobedience mainly out of curiosity, but during filming, the filmmakers themselves also become activists. A Few Words About Disobedience is their film debut.
2nd place in the My Street Films 2018 competition
