The artistic film The Personal Life of a Hole directed by Ondřej Vavrečka is formally based on a documentary film, which, however, radically transcends towards an open, playful, experimental form. We find the world actually more leaky than full, as shown by the structure of matter. And the world needs those empty spaces to move. Short moments of ecstasy are alternated with waiting of marabou birds, hardcore philosophy is intertwined with everyday's banality, sound is running through the picture.. The film shot on used and fresh 16mm colorful film stock contemplates contemporary culture, ecology, economics, and finally, love.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
