The Karlovy Vary International Film Festival is set to world premiere a cinematic cut of Warhorse Studios’ video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Cinematic Cut. The news comes as the fest looks to expand its range of new trends in the audiovisual industry.
Story is set in the Kingdom of Bohemia in 1403. Chaos has befallen the Kingdom. 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 rightful king’s allies, Henry is set 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 credited as directors of the film.
“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,” said KVIFF artistic director Karel Och.
Warhorse Studios CEO Martin Frývadlsky said: “I have wished to see Kingdom Come: Deliverance II on the big screen for a long time, I believe that the civil 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 film will premiere on July 9. The Karlovy Vary International Film Festival takes place July 4-12.
