Happy New Year 2 is the rousing follow up to the original, brightly-toned Happy New Year (2019). The story takes place on the last day of the year, when Marek (Ján Koleník) proposes to Hana (Tána Pauhofová) and Hana’s “yes” manifests a crazy series of events. Hana’s three friends (Antónia Lišková, Zuzana Norisová, Gabriela Marcinková), once again turn up and bring on the goofy, loveable fun - these ladies just can’t help but bring drama to the seemingly simple wedding preparations; while one of them is currently without a partner, the other has two rivaling men fighting for her and the third has a husband who, with his carelessness, crosses all lines.
Taking place by the beautiful “Czechoslovak” sea in Croatia, Happy New Year 2 is a holiday romance that bursts with laughs and good times. And just like the original, it whisks it all together to create a touching tale of family, love and sisterhood.
Screening as the Closing Night Feature of the 2022 Czech and Slovak Film Festival of Australia. Ticket includes drink on arrival, snacks provided, and live music from The Vardos Trio. Event starts at 5pm for a 6pm screening.
