Moravská Hellas

Karel Vachek
1963 Czechoslovakia 30 minutes Czech

Using the experimental form of a “mosaic” film, the filmmaker takes an ironic look at the preparations for the folklore presentations at the Strážnice Festival during Communist rule. What emerges from under the polished surface of the festivities are the hardships of everyday life. A film that was censored for many years.
