House of Culture (2021) - production designer
The House of Culture in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia, was built in 1979 and therefore lived through various political times. It used to be the cultural centre of the city, yet currently it is abandoned and deteriorates by the day. It is a sad image of how not only the building, but also the culture became neglected in Banska Bystrica.
This short film follows the story of the building through 3 generations of the Miková family, and the memories that they have of it. The family memories of the House of Culture map out various political and cultural times, but also show how these times have impacted the family and many others alike.
