About the movie:
A young girl’s family reaches a crisis when her mother’s former lover returns to town. Through Terezka’s drawings, we see her developing view of the world as she becomes immersed in the Little Red Riding Hood tale with Halloween approaching. Her fantasy world increasingly mirrors—and eventually collides with—her opera singer mother’s dissatisfaction with life in Czechoslovakia and the mounting pressure on her father as the head of airport security.

A film by Marie Procházková, featuring Dorotka Dědková, Jitka Čvančarová, Pavel Řezníček, Jana Krausová, Martin Hofmann, and Marek Taclík.

The “KHB” in Sokol KHB Ennis honors Karel Havlíček Borovský!

Born on October 31, 1821, Havlíček was a Czech journalist, poet, and courageous advocate for Czech language, culture, and freedom of the press. His commitment to these ideals endured even in the face of persecution.

At Sokol Ennis, we proudly carry his name and honor his legacy by preserving our Czech heritage and sharing our traditions with future generations.

On October 28, 1918, Czechs and Slovaks celebrated the creation of an independent Czechoslovak state, marking a defining moment in the history of both peoples.

For generations, Czechs and Slovaks carried their languages, traditions, and national identities with them while living under foreign rule. In 1918, those shared aspirations for self-determination came together to create a new nation where both Czech and Slovak people could shape their own future.

More than a century later, we continue to celebrate the unique cultures of the Czech and Slovak peoples, as well as the historic connection that brought them together.

Šťastný Den vzniku samostatného československého státu!
