Divočina psychological drama to premiere in cinemas

The psychological family drama ‘Divočina’, directed by Evženia Brabcová, is set to premiere in cinemas on October 22. The film explores themes of toxic relationships, domestic violence, and the phenomenon of ‘prepperism’ or apocalypse preparedness.

The story follows Marta, played by Klára Issová, as she attempts to escape an abusive marriage to Milan, portrayed by Juraj Loj. Seeking refuge at her aging father’s remote location, Marta instead encounters his intense obsession with an impending apocalypse and his survivalist training methods. The narrative intensifies when her husband arrives, leading to a dramatic confrontation.
