Čapkova sokolovna in Ostrava: a gem with a First Republic atmosphere.
In Přívoz, Ostrava, stands the Čapkova sokolovna, a functionalist building from 1923, which embodies the elegance of the first republic and the rawness of an industrial environment. With cubist features and authentic interiors such as wood paneling and tall windows, the building offers visually engaging backdrops for historical, sports and drama films. The neglected genius loci creates a space for the tension between the nobility of gymnasium traditions and the ravages of time that are evident on the building. The contrast between the bright, airy gymnasium and the gloomy surroundings of Ostrava's streets gives the place a unique cinematic potential. Sokolovna is not only an architectural gem, but also a silent witness to a rich cultural history, waiting for new stories to be told in front of the camera.
