A theater performance, a musical, a story of hope, resilience, and inclusion told by thirty exceptional children—young performers from children's homes and marginalized communities.
Snowflakes is a powerful blend of drama, music, fashion, and dance, telling a story of hope and resilience. Thirty talented children share their personal stories, showcasing their joy, energy, and determination. Created by avant-garde filmmaker Viktor Tauš, known for his experimental storytelling and multiple Czech Lion awards, the show highlights the transformative power of inclusion.
