Václav Havel's Leaving (Odcházení), starring Jan Tříska, hits cinema screens to mark his 90th anniversary. Havel went down in history as a great statesman with the soul of a playwright. To mark what would have been his 90th birthday, Dramox brings to cinemas a recording of the legendary world premiere of Leaving (Odcházení) from Divadlo Archa. The phenomenal Jan Tříska excels in the role of the departing Chancellor Rieger, who faces a harsh confrontation with reality after losing his position and state villa. During a bitter reckoning with his rivals and those closest to him, including his girlfriend Irena played by the brilliant Zuzana Stivínová, the world of the powerful is revealed without official embellishments. Director's notes are narrated by Václav Havel himself. The performance at times turns into an intimate encounter with the author and poses the essential question: How hard is it to leave from the pinnacle when, in the end, only the person and their conscience remain? This recording of an exceptional performance will bring an amazing theatrical experience to your cinema. The November atmosphere naturally attracts viewers to cinemas who want to celebrate freedom and reflect on modern history. You can offer them a unique opportunity to honor the strong legacy of Václav Havel, especially fitting in the year of his 90th anniversary.
