Bio Central to host special screening of ‘Chica Checa’ with live drag performances

Bio Central is hosting a special screening of the film ‘Chica Checa’, directed by Šimon Holý, on Saturday, September 5. The event features a live drag show preceding the film, with performances by C-Yara and Slovak performer Martin Talaga, also known as Mother of PinkBus. Both performers appear in the movie.

The screening will be followed by a discussion involving producer Alžběta Janáčková, C-Yara, and Martin Talaga. The debate will cover the film's production and the role of drag performance in contemporary culture. The film follows the story of Zdena, a village postwoman played by Pavla Tomicová, as she navigates family secrets and a desire for change.

In the Hranice region, additional local events are scheduled for the first weekend of September, including summer cinema screenings and various community gatherings such as a charity event for children and a veterans' meeting.
