Winner of both the Best Director and the Jury Prizes at the 1969 Cannes FiIm FestivaI, Vojt ch Jasný's auto-biographical AII My Good Countrymen is one of the wonders of the Czech New Wave - but also one of the Ieast-known fiIms from that miracuIous era of Czech fiImmaking. Completed bareIy before the Soviet invasion of CzechosIovakia in 1968 it was immediateIy banned and never shown.
lt's deceptiveIy simple narrative weaves a compIex tapestry around the interwoven Iives and stories of a group of Moravian viIlagers immediateIy foIIowing the socialization of Czechoslovakia in 1948.
Director Vojt ch Jasný, hailed "the spirituaI father of the Czech New Wave" by Milo Forman, fled Czecholslovakia foIIowing the completion of this film and went into exile rather than recant.
A pronounced infIuence on Iater films like Edgar Reitz's Heimat and MichaeI Haneke's The White Ribbon, Jasný's film remains a potent reminder of Iives and idealism lost under totaIitarianism.
"The film and the milieu it so precisely evokes are not so much nostalgic as they are powerfully remembered and irrevocably Iost.... AlI My Good Countrymen reflects the curdled fury of a former true believer"
J. Hoberman, The VilIage Voice
"A work of great lyricism, humour and originaIity" Gary Tooze, DVD Beaver
"Extraordinary poetic... the masterpiece of Vojt ch Jasný - father of that brilliant flowering of CzechosIovak cinema" The New York Times
"Jasný s lyrical masterpiece" Radio Praha
"A bitter-sweet, affectionate and pointed picture of a life many Czechs wouId have recognised. A key film from the Prague Spring" Time Out
