SNAKE GAS
by David Jařab
synopsis
Robert Klein leaves his partner Saadu behind in France to return to Prague and find his stepbrother eventually somewhere in the Balkans. He is driven by the intuition that he will find him in those places where Europe is losing its contours and falling into its colonial past, limned by its xenophobic present. Robert Klein is forced to think about himself, his relationship to violence, sex, and the otherness of cultures. He is forced to confront his ego and eventually even accept its dark side.
