Anyone who is not yet familiar with the cosy little cinema in the Porzellanikon - State Museum of Porcelain in Hohenberg a.d. Eger should now pay attention: On Sunday, 6 November 2022, Porzellanikon will be presenting a special exhibition from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. entitled "UNIKATE erzählen. Künstleri-sches Meissen 1970 - 2010" a film that will appeal to both young and old cinema fans. "The War of the Buttons" - this is the title of Louis Pergaud's classic book, which was filmed in 2012. In the story, the boys of two rival villages compete against each other. The buttons are cut off the clothes of the defeated as a sign of defeat... Inspired by this story, the porcelain artist Olaf Fieber, whose objects form part of the exhibition "UNIKATE erzählen. Artistic Meissen 1970 -2010", make up several figures. One of them is included in the special exhibition and is shown on an entertaining tour of the exhibition before the film begins.

The film is suitable for children aged 6 and over. Registration is requested at besuchercenter(at)porzellanikon.org  or tel. +49 9287-918000.
