Pongo Calling

​​​​​​Štefan Pongo initiates a social media campaign for Romani in the Czech Republic to post selfies from their workplaces after the president of the country claims that Romani people are “socially unadaptable and refuse jobs”. As the movement grows, his family life is affected.

Pongo Calling is directed by Tomáš Kratochvíl.

Please note: the screening on 28 June at the Odeon is a socially distanced screening – audiences are asked to wear face masks in this screening.
