The main motif for the visual identity of the 59th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival is a simple human gesture: an embrace.
An ordinary yet powerful moment, a symbol of closeness, friendship, love, understanding, and forgiveness.
Photographed with various people in various situations then and now. Is it film? Yes, but mainly it is life!
