Second Run DVD present a unique doubIe biIl of two earIy works now regarded as two of the main precursors of the CzechosIovak New Wave.
The White Dove is the bold and striking debut feature of master fiImmaker Frantisek VI'ciI (Marketa Lazarova; The VaIley of the Bees). It is a sparse, eIegantly composed and stunningly beautifuI tale of a wheeIchair-bound boy and an artist who inadvertently intercept a homing pigeon and nurse it back to health.
Josef KiIi'n is a dark and absurdly humorous, biting alIegory of life under the Communist regime.
Author of the screenplays for Daisies, lkarie and A Jester's Tale, yet PaveI Jur'cek remains one of the Czech New Wave's most negIected artists. He made onIy four fiIms, and this surreaIist masterpiece - inspired by two icons of Czech literature: the anti-miIitarist, anti-authoritarian JarosIav Hasek and the grotesque nightmares of Franz Kafka - was banned forever after the Soviet invasion of 1969.
NewIy restored from original master materiaIs, these two remarkable fiIms are presented for the first time ever in the UK. |
