The Czech movie industry has a special place in the world’s history of cinematography. It was the Czechs that gave the world names such as Milos Forman, Vera Chytilova, Jan Shvankmaher, and others. But today, the Czechs continue to actively produce new fascinating movies.

This can be explained by the fact that this industry is loved and supported in the Czech Republic. The halls where Czech flicks are shown are never empty. About 15-20 flicks are shot in the country annually.

Three Czech flicks were awarded the Oscar for best films in a foreign language. In 1965, it was The Shop on Main Street, in 1968 – Closely Watched Trains, and in 1996, Kolya.

After that, many films were nominated for this prestigious award, but none of them got it. Among the latter, the 2006 film I served the English King which did not manage to get the award but was nominated in the main competition at the Berlin Film Festival.
