Interview with Zdenek Mahler

Two young reporters from Prague talk to famous screenplay writer
 
The young reporters from Prague Vojta Vrabec and HonzaDupač interviewed a well-known Czech screenplay writer Zdanek Mahler, who is a relative of a composer Gustav Mahler.
You will listen to the conversation with Zdenek Mahler about his life. He reveals, for example, how his popular screenplay for movie masterpiece about Mozart's legendary Amadeus was created.  It is  also interesting  how he started his cooperation with the director of the movie Milos Forman. Zdanek Mahler and the young journalists also talk  about the Czech language because this radio segment is dedicated to the Czech culture.

 

My language means my culture

The language reflects the mentality, traditions and emotions. It tells the history of particular culture. The other way round,  from their own culture and history people develop a certain language system with some exceptions and rules. An international language such as English helps us obviously to communicate but it cannot replace the mother language.
In our international project we present the languages that can be categorized according to the particular language families, they are the groups of the Germanic, Slavic, Altaic, Romanic, Afroasiatic, Indogermanic and Sino-Tibetan languages.
Listen to the further languages that are hardly spoken in the streets of central European cities as Bulgarian and Ladino. What Ladino is you can find out from our broadcast!
