Ikarie XB-1
dir. Jindřich Polák
Czechoslovakia, 1963

Based on Stanisław Lem’s The Magellanic Cloud (1955), the Czechoslovak production deals with themes of alienation in outer space, confusion, self-doubt, and immersion in extreme sensations. The protagonist fights a duel with a machine, sometimes winning thanks to faith and intuition, at other times losing due to the machine’s unerringness.

Film screenings in the garden next to the Club/Café Eufemia (the rector’s building of the Academy of the Fine Arts, Krakowskie Przedmieście 5), entrance from Wacław Niżyński passage
entrance free
