The Karlovy Vary Film Festival will present the world premiere of the cinematic cut of Warhorse Studios’ video game “Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.”
The film is set in 1403 in the Kingdom of Bohemia, where chaos reigns. As invaders pillage this ungoverned land, sowing fear and terror, Henry of Skalitz seeks revenge for his murdered family. Now a trusted servant of the allies of the rightful king, Henry is sent to escort Sir Hans Capon on a diplomatic mission. After they are ambushed and nearly killed, the two young men embark on a series of perilous adventures, putting their skills, character and friendship to the ultimate test.
Daniel Vávra and Petr Pekař are the directors of the film.
Martin Frývadlský, the CEO of Warhorse Studios, said: “I have wished to see ‘Kingdom Come: Deliverance II’ on the big screen for a long time. I believe that the story of a blacksmith’s son will also appeal to film audiences and stand up to the competition of international movie productions. Together with my colleagues in the studio, we are proud that we have the opportunity to present the story we have been working on for many years in a world premiere at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival.”
The festival’s artistic director Karel Och said: “We are honored to be working together with world leaders in their field on this unique project, which represents an exceptionally original contribution to our long-standing goal of presenting powerful and gripping stories captured in a unique manner.”
