A Report on the Party and the Guests
A picnic is rudely transformed into a lesson in political hierarchy when a handful of mysterious authority figures show up.
Pearls of the Deep
Young Man with Fracture (segment "Podvodníci")
A manifesto of sorts for the Czech New Wave, this five-part anthology shows off the breadth of expression and the versatility of the movement’s directors. Based on stories by the legendary writer Bohumil Hrabal, the shorts range from the surreally chilling to the caustically observant to the casually romantic, but all have a cutting, wily view of the world.
