The trailer has debuted for Ondřej Provazní’s psychological drama “Broken Voices,” which has its world premiere in the main competition at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival. Salaud Morisset is handling the film’s world sales rights.
The film follows 13-year-old Karolína, a gifted novice singer, who is given the chance to become a member of a world-famous girls’ choir, taking her place alongside her older sister and her other rivals in the ensemble. Karolína’s talent has caught the attention of the formidable and much-admired choirmaster whose attention is wanted by all the young singers. What will be the price Karolína has to pay to become his favorite?
François Morisset, CEO of Salaud Morisset, said the film was “a gripping psychological drama that kept us on edge with its palpable tension, while offering a sensitive and intimate portrait of young women navigating the bubbled and competitive world of girls’ choirs, driven by abusive authority. It’s a timeless topic, powerfully rendered with nuance and empathy.”
The film is a Czech Republic, Slovak Republic co-porduction.
The cast includes Kateřina Falbrová, Juraj Loj, Maya Kintera, Zuzana Šulajová, Marek Cisovský, Ivana Wojtylová, Anna Michalcová, Anežka Novotná and Markéta Kühnová.
