DESCRIPTION:\n	Dir. Jindřich Polák. 1963\, 88 mins. Imported 35mm print fro
 m the Czech Film Archive. With Zdeněk Štěpánek\, František Smolík\, Dana M
 edřická. In Czech with English subtitles. Ikarie XB-1 is an ambitious scie
 nce fiction space opera\, possibly best known for prefiguring many visual 
 and thematic motifs of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. This 'Spac
 e Marienbad\,' as one critic called it\, perfectly epitomises an era defin
 ed by a raging space race and cultural competition between the East and th
 e West. The film portrays an idealised communist civilisation circa 2163\,
  as it embarks on a voyage beyond our solar system. Its real protagonist i
 s a monumental discovery spaceship Ikarie\, a self-contained world in mini
 ature designed to impress an international audience with its vision of a h
 ighly advanced lifestyle\, as imagined by a small socialist country. Like 
 the rest of the film\, its 22nd-century costumes are steeped in the ideolo
 gy of utopianism\, something that is especially driven home when 'ancient 
 people' of the twentieth century are discovered on a derelict ship deep in
  space. \n	\n	\n	Tickets: $15 ($11 seniors and students / $9 youth (ages 3
