A better world is not for everyone
Directed by Matěj Chlupáček

A dark, morally complex investigation into prejudice and complicity set against 1930s industrial capitalism, where a woman's search for truth forces her to confront her own biases.
Helena, is about to give birth and face a rosy future in a modern city, as the pregnant wife of an important factory manager. However, all her illusions soon perish, as the dead body of a newborn intersex baby is found in the middle of their factory. Helena needs to find out what happened here for the safety of her own child, but she runs into her own prejudices.
