A look back at the last day of the festival through the lenses of Lukáš Horký and Michal Hančovský. Monday featured the international discussion platform CED talks. Sahar Rezaei then „celebrated“ her birthday in the performance Happy Birthday and the imaginary exclamation point for this year's Flora was „written“ by Kamila Polívková's production Juices!

The tenderness of the children's production Microworlds on Sunday was sharply cut off by the anti-war diptych All Quiet On The Western Front / Green Corridors, with which Dušan D. Pařízek returned to Flora. Sunday was a day of dialogues: there were discussions about the productions Symphony of Progress and Prima Facie, as well as a CED Talks discussion on Theatre and Diversity I: FREEDOM with international participation.
