By Iulia Blaga

    BRATISLAVA: As part of the cycle CineStories/ Filmoviedky on Slovak Television (www.stv.sk), Stanislav Párnický's Dusicky seniorov/Old Souls's Day follows the destinies of a community living in a retirement home following the severe injure of a resident.

    The manager tries to cover up the incident, but a former judge starts a secret investigation to find the truth. Like all the 10 films from CineStories, Old Souls's Day has three chapters, or micro-stories, each of them mirroring the point of view of one of the protagonists.

    Shooting of the 96 minute film took place in November 2011. The premiere is set for autumn 2012, representatives of Slovak Television told FNE.

    Jozef Puškáš wrote the script, and Laco Kraus is the DOP. The cast includes Emília Vášaryová, Petr Nárožný, Ivan Romančík, František Kovár, Zita Furková, Lucia Gažiová, and Ivo Gogál.

    The film screens in the Slovak Season section of Art Film Fest (www.artfilmfest.sk).
