PODCAST | Matt Micucci interviews Tereza Nvotová, director of the film Filthy.

Tereza Nvotová presented her fiction feature, Filthy, in a strand of the 52nd Karlovy Vary International Film Festival dedicated to contemporary Czech films. Filthy deals with the delicate issue of rape through a coming of age drama about a young girl. Nvotová tells us how she prepared for the movie and that she purposefully opted for a naturalistic approach. Furthermore, she talks about the challenges of dealing with this delicate theme within a coming of age drama, and how she ws able to cast the role of her protagonist. Furthermore, in this interview, Nvotová tells us about interesting things that happened during the making of the film, and how her background in documentary filmmaking affected the production of Filthy.

Filthy: “isn’t it partly her fault?” Variations on this dangerous question are put to the heroine of this drama, who has been raped by her teacher. Seventeen-year-old Lena ends up in a psychiatric hospital, but the insensitive staff causes her to withdraw into herself. Tereza Nvotová’s film tells us there are some demons that can’t just be shaken off.
