Summary

This harsh tale about the world around us, about human pride, cruelty and intolerance is a professional adaptation of a film from 1982 by an acknowledged amateur filmmaker who comes face to face with censorship. The new version is twice as long and takes place exclusively in exteriors. The film consists of several stories that mutually intertwine. Music, creating a counterpoint to people’s behaviour, plays a major role in the film.

Note

The film consists of four episodes New Sun, Theatre, Middle Age and New Family.

Distribution slogan

New Czech film. Humanity is very stupid and comical... there is nothing left to do but grind, teeth, mock themselves and others... all as if it were just an awkward comedy, taking place somewhere in a booth at the fair.
