ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Broken Voices (Czech: Sbormistr) is a 2025 thriller drama film written and directed by Ondřej Provazník. The film set in early-1990s, inspired by Bambini di Praga case, explores the fragile line where innocence collides with abusive power. It follows thirteen-year-old singer Karolína, who joins her sister in a prestigious girls’ choir, where the strict guidance of a demanding choirmaster Mácha begins to shape her aspirations.
The film, a Czech Republic and Slovak Republic co-production premiered at 59th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival on 6 July 2025, where it was nominated for Crystal Globe. The film was critically appreciated, and won Europa Cinemas Label Award as well as Special Jury Mention for Kateřina Falbrová, for her performance as protagonist Karolína.
The production brought together a diverse cast comprising both professional actresses and actual choir members to authentically recreate the dynamics of a real-life ensemble. The soundtrack combines classical choral music with contemporary touches from Czech producers Aid Kid and Jonathan Pastircak, whose subtle input highlights the film’s psychological depth while preserving its more subdued scenes
