“Do you know who to watch out for in the room? On what is silent, “ explains Sergei Barracuda to Adam Mišík in the first shots of the expected film BANGER. It captures street life and rap culture in all its harsh beauty. Drugs, sex, music, fights. All this is evident from the first minutes of the film, which REFRESHER has exclusively available. The film will be in theaters from September 22.

As dynamic as the film story was, the filming itself in the streets of Prague, which took place completely on the iPhone. Adam Mišík says about the shooting: “The whole story takes place in one evening and it’s a good ride. The shooting affected me the same way. I felt like it was one day of filming, even though there were 15. A lot of moments came up spontaneously in the situation, so it was necessary to have Alex’s energy well under the skin. “
“I think the first shots show what BANGER will look like in cinemas. It’s intense, unadorned and real, but above all we wanted the audience to have fun with the film. It was also interesting for me to address the role of Alex Adam Mišík and work with him in a direction that no one would expect from him. “ describes Adam Sedlák, the film’s director. You can remember this, for example, as the creator of the Semester series and the film Domestik.
The whole film is made even more interesting by the fact that the creators shot it all on the iPhone. “Rap is street music and I wanted our film to act like a street film. Therefore, the choice to shoot on the iPhone was not an effort to save, but above all creative. It was clear that we had to do that. The goal was to capture the story as faithfully as possible, I didn’t want the camera to show off in any way it would draw attention to itself, as is the custom in rap music videos, for example. “ says Adam Sedlák.
You can look forward to the film on September 22nd. In addition to Adam Mišík and Sergei Barracuda, it will also feature Marcel Bendig, Anna Fialová, Pavel Novotný and porn actress Stacy Cruz.
