‘Broken Voices’ Revisits Infamous Sexual Abuse Case That Shook Czech Republic: ‘If Anything Happens to You, Please Tell Someone’
‘Broken Voices,' directed by Ondrej Provazník and bowing at Karlovy Vary Film Festival, revisits the infamous Bambini di Praga sexual abuse case.
Quite often – and especially in the case of Bambini di Praga – people would say to me: ‘These girls were guilty as well.’ You know, all the usual things: ‘Why did they wait so long?’ One of my aims was to start this story even before the actual trauma begins – also to explain the complexities of this experience.” It stars Kateřina Falbrová, Juraj Loj, Maya Kintera, Zuzana Šulajová, Marek Cisovský, Ivana Wojtylová, Anna Michalcová, Anežka Novotná and Markéta Kühnová. Provazník isn’t showing the trial or its aftermath, focusing on “how these things start.” Looking for answers, he turned to Vanessa Springora’s memoir “Consent” [describing abuse she experienced from author Gabriel Matzneff, which started when she was 14], “Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich” and “ Leaving Neverland,” about Michael Jackson.
