    Desc: Priamy prenos: Directed by Zuzana Piussi. Set against the backdrop of the death of an abused child, the film sketches a dark picture of the state social care system for threatened children in Slovakia. This mosaic of interviews with people who run the system or who are enmeshed in it carries an openly critical appeal - not to aggressive parents or arrogant social workers, but to a non-functional system such as it is. In contrast to the system's dehumanizing character, we meet SerafĂ­nka, who in her efforts to help others displays truly heroic enthusiasm. The film is characterized by the direct, non-manipulative way of filming the individual persons involved.
