Pavel Koutecky died in a tragic accident last year, but the film - called Citizen Havel - is now in post-production, and will premiere in the Czech Republic in January. On Monday there was a sneak preview of the working version at Prague's MAT cinema, where we spoke to co-producer Pavel Strnad. We began by asking him about the film's name. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/obcan_vh2.jpg?timestamp=1591395630 https://english.radio.cz/unique-new-documentary-about-vaclav-havel-premiere-january-8603785 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
