Lions of Czech Film: Seven Ravens

October 12, 2016, 8:00 PM

The Avalon Theatre will feature Czech helmer Alice Nellis' film Seven Ravens (Sedmero krkavců) on October 12, at 8 pm. The fairytale focuses on a girl who who decides to save her brothers from a curse which was brought upon them by their mother. The protagonist is a young girl Bohdanka who was born to the grief-stricken family of a baker, whose wife cursed their seven sons in an outburst of rage many years ago and turned them into ravens. The parents keep this tragedy secret from Bohdanka. On the cusp of adulthood, Bohdanka discovers the family curse and decides to save her brothers. She is advised by a local witch to sew special shirts for them. Journey into a tale filled with courage and the power of language and true love. (Dir. Alice Nellis, 2015, 97 min., Czech with English subtitles)
