During World war 2 the Germans refitted the Barrandov studios with modern, state of the art equipment and used them to produce propaganda films for the Reich. Once Czechoslovakia was again a free country the film industry grew to be very successful. \u003cp\u003e The Karlovy Vary film festival is one of the oldest in the world. The pre-war dream of many enthusiastic filmmakers materialized in 1946 when in Marianske Lazne and Karlovy Vary a non-competition festival of films from seven countries took place. Above all it was intended to screen the results of the recently nationalized Czechoslovak film industry. After the first two years the festival moved permanently to Karlovy Vary. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Karlovy Vary International Film Festival is now probably the most important festival in central Europe \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can visit their website  here. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\"\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e  Postage and Packing :\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e  The item will be sent by airmail from The Czech Republic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Please allow 3-4 days delivery time to Europe and up to 7 days worldwide. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003ctable width=\"60%\" border=\"1\" align=\"center\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd width=\"74%\"\u003eEnamel Pin Badge(s)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd width=\"26%\" align=\"right\"\u003e$3.99\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable width=\"100%\" height=\"35\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd width=\"200\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e  Payment Methods :\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  I prefer payment by Paypal  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e  No personal checks please. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\"\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e  Warranty Terms :\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThis pin is in the condition described above and as photographed. \u003cbr\u003eIf you are in any way dissatisfied I will happily discuss any problems you have via email.
