 Under patronage of the Municipal centre of
information and culture Krnov, together with Ministry of Culture, under
the patronage of town major of Krnov, the Mir 70 theatre will again be
the meeting point for film enthusiasts from not only the Czech Republic
but also visitors from many European counties, including Austria,
Holland, France, Poland and Germany. The event is organized in
collaboration with town Krnov and the Association of Czech Film Clubs,
supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic. The event
also cooperates with Polska Federacja dyskusyjnych klubów filmowych.
Apart the film excitement, every festival visitor can enjoy small
exhibition of screening technique in Mir theatre foyer, film posters
are to be on display and some interesting comments to every film. All
the visitor will have the opportunity to see „the behind the scene“ of
every projection room and to see the technology at work (Meopta UM 70/35
projectors).
"The name of the festival - KRRR! – which is a part of the festival logo
originated in Filmochod agency which is responsible for unified visual
presentation of our event. It has several meanings: KRRR! can be seen as
an interjection - a group of consonants which evokes the sound of the
projector machine, or from point of view of phonetic terms a combination
of voiceless and consonant sounds ( velar and dental) forming (almost
unpronounceable for foreigners) beginning of the city name - Krnov. This
original idea which approval aroused strong reactions is hoped to
attract new visitors as well as fulfil expectations and standard of
those faithful patrons from past years " (Taken from a official press
release).
The 70mm cinema Mír 70 in Krnov is currently only one in the Visegrad
Four countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary), which is
able to screen 70mm film of the original, six-track magnetic stereo
sound to 105 square meters of slightly curved screen. One of the main
task of the festival is to recall now unused film format which dazzled
visitors in its time by brilliant display of details in picture and and
insurmountable sound to nowadays public – DESPITE ALL THE DRAWBACKS THAT
OLD AND WORN-OUT COPIES OF 70mm FILMS BRING.
