Guest
The tale of the Venetian gondolier whose desire for revenge following a thwarted love affair leads him to Bohemia. The intricate plot also deals with destinies of other characters, who finally come together in a dramatic encounter at one time and in one place. In his role as screenwriter and director, Anton produced a highly accomplished version of Mácha’s work. He respected the original but was also able, along with the DoP Karel Kopřiva, to capitalise on the possibilities that the film medium offered. For the Venice prologue, the filmmakers exploited the photogenic qualities of the city – the narrow streets, the lagoons, gondolas and the sea – and they moved the set to the enigmatic Czech landscape around the castle of Kokořín.

The Five Senses of Man
Story
He paces nervously with his flowers in front of the building until she looks out from a window & tells him to come on up. She's happy to receive the flowers which she puts in a vase. He's happy to partake of a feast she has prepared for him, including wine, bread, meat, a big napkin around his neck. She does not eat with him, perhaps reflecting her occupation as a cook who doesn't eat with who employs her.
