What's it about

A leading figure of the Czech New Wave, Věra Chytilová offers in this work a surrealist reinterpretation of the myth of Adam and Eve, where allegory and irony join hands with dazzling aesthetic freedom. Chaos, absurdity and chromatic exuberance fuel the last film Chytilová was able to make before being sidelined by censorship, confirming her as one of the most original voices of the world cinematic avant-garde.
