Karlovy Vary – And the winner is …

July 13, 2008 By Jeff 1 Comment

The 43rd Karlovy Vary International Film Festival wrapped up yesterday.  The closing film was the movie Mamma Mia!, which is based on the musical of the same name and features songs from ABBA.  The Danish film Terribly Happy (Frygtelig Lykkelig) won the Crystal Globe for best feature film.

If you are interested in reading more about the festival, I have linked to the official site and some news articles.

The main venue for screenings is at the Hotel Thermal (see picture below).  On our site, we have a section on the famous spa town of Karlovy Vary.

    That’s really helpful. There’s so much written on things like the Film Festival that it’s difficult to follow it all. Putting the highlights in one place for us is a good idea.
