Indymedia Cinema screening: 'Czech Dream' Aug 5th 8:30pm @ mac

03-08-2005 13:24

'Czech Dream' August 5th @ Midlands Arts Centre @ 8:30pm

'They built a fake hypermarket. They fooled thousands of people. Why did they do it?'

This funny and provocative analysis of the world of media manipulation is based on a hoax perpetrated by two film students on an unsuspecting public. In May 2003, several thousand Prague residents showed up at a meadow on the city's outskirts to attend the opening of Czech Dream, a hypermarket much touted in a clever advertising campaign which said 'Don't Come' and 'Don't Spend'. But the store front turned out to be a façade.

Friday nights screening, which starts at 8:30pm, will be followed by a post-screening discussion, hosted by Indymedia, focusing on the issues that the film raises.
