PRIŠIEL K NÁM OLD SHATTERHAND

Dušan Hanák

A sarcastic report on living in an enclosed reservation behind the iron curtain. Against the backdrop of a first-plan confrontation between its natives and inquisitive strangers, Hanák in a sequence of amusing visual and aural situations, uncovers weariness of a socialist society tired of building “brighter tomorrows“ and points out the extent of backwardness or indifference of its inhabitants.
