Recollections of a summer when a boy becomes a man.

November 1999. Sixty-seven-year-old Trond lives in solitude and is looking forward to spending the the year 2000 alone as well. With the arrival of winter he finds out that his neighbour is a man who he knew many years ago, in 1948. That summer, Trond had just turned fifteen. It was the summer he grew up and first encountered the scent of the woman he desired. The same woman with whom his father intended to spend the rest of his life...

The film Out Stealing Horses is based on the book of the same name by Norwegian author Per Petterson, who has received a number of awards for this work such as the Norwegian Critics Award, the Booksellers’ Best Book of the Year Award (Norway), the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize (UK), or the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award.

The film became the Norwegian candidate for an Oscar, and at the 2019 Berlinale received a Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Contribution for Rasmus Videbæk’s cinematography.

Keep exploring

Lost Highway – SOLD OUT

David Lynch's dreamlike work mixes an abstract plane with references to the most idiosyncratic noir films. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Sunset Boulevard

A fraught tale of artistic ego is set in the now forgotten but mythical world of Hollywood studios, which never ceased to fascinate David Lynch. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


8½ – SOLD OUT

An award-winning existential comedy drama by the much admired Italian director Federico Fellini. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me – SOLD OUT

A feature-length theatrical film dedicated to the seemingly familiar story of the fallen angel from Twin Peaks. In this revolutionary prequel for its time, Lynch follows the ill-fated diva on a cocaine-fuelled ride through hell. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Lolita

A cinematic treatment of Vladimir Nabokov's famous novel, in which the obsessive roots of David Lynch's paternal yet infantile incestuous parental figures are confronted with absurdly comic and terrifyingly demonic messengers of absolute evil. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Blue Velvet

The dark film, which smacks of sex, drugs, and ’60s suburbia, is at times a coming-of-age flick, at times a noir whodunit, and for the most part an undeniably and unexpectedly violent thriller. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Persona

From Ibsen, Pirandello and Vertov to Bergman's contemporaries and everything we affectionately refer to as ‘Lynchian’, films full of doubles, repressed sexual tension and the schizophrenic nature of the acting profession. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.


Czech Hero

Satirical physical theater production Czech Hero by the theatre ensemble Farm in the Cave, which focuses on the contemporary and pressing topic of disinformation and political marketing. Movement, words, live music, dynamics, energy, exaggeration. All this in the DOX+ hall.



Thin Skin

A performance by established circus acrobat Eliška Brtnická and her hypnotic production Thin Skin at the interface of movement installation and contemporary circus in the spaces of the DOX Centre.



Refuge

They're on their way. Out of fear. No guarantees. Three people cross paths on the run. Bound to each other, they traverse territories of anxiety, courage, failure and compassion. They seek refuge in a world that doesn't care for them.



PLI

Viktor Černický's solo production at the intersection of dance, physical theatre, and the visual arts which delivers a visually compelling study of balance, endurance, and creativity.



Is this the end?
No, it's the beginning.
