EVERYTHING I LIKE
Symposium
Lethargic Tomáš, a man in his late thirties, is at the crossroads. Ann, his young English girlfriend, offers him the opportunity to escape his home-country. But he feels obligated to his family and is – though feeling alienated – unable to part with the country he was born in. Employing numerous references to Slovakian cinematographic masterpieces of the sixties, director Martin Šulík – goEast laureate in 2003 – creates a brilliant poetic kaleidoscope of Slovakia between the past and the early post-communist present.
