We have launched a new project! Its aim is to support the distribution of documentary films and also to care for the Ji.hlava audience. Everyone who buys an accreditation will get exclusive online access to one film per month. All films will be subtitled in Czech.
Film of the month: Memory Wars
American forensic psychologist Elizabeth Loftus is both reviled and admired as a legal expert on the unreliability of human memory. Her testimony, based on an analysis of the consistency of statements, has played a significant role in dozens of court cases where the reliability of human memory has influenced decisions on the guilt or innocence of perpetrators. As the words of testimony turn into images and images transform into memory, the witness's records become an unreliable analysis of the twists and turns of the human mind and its imagination. The documentary shows a personality torn between cultural wars and the struggle to define false memories, which are a common part of our memory and the “greatest hoax of the 21st century.”
The movie will be available after you log in with your account with a valid accreditation. You can buy an accreditation here.
