Požáry a spáleniště (1981)
Character: Musician
Antonín Kachlík wanted to make committed films about the moral dilemmas of the working class, but in the era of normalisation, he could only proclaim how faltering individuals would eventually come to the desired thinking. This is also true of the adaptation of Jiří Švejda's book about the wavering career of a young brickmaking technologist - the simplistic drawing of characters and plots, the posterishly lifeless language and the textbook discussion of social ills are all objectionable; the ideal becomes the code of the socialist builder.
Slunovrat (2001)
Character: N/A
When the Hradišťan ensemble created the program O slunovratu (About the Solstice) in the music and dance world years ago, it was clear after the premiere that it would be a hit with listeners and viewers. This fictional journey through the year, with its feelings and moods rooted in local folklore, is easy to understand thanks to the Moravian folk lyrics and poems of Jan Skácel and the music of the experienced Jiří Pavlica. For the television visual form, authors Petr Hajn, Petr Vejslík, and Milan Popelka chose an hour-long mosaic of images for each song, combining visualization with a music video approach. The program was filmed over almost two years in various locations in Moravia and in all seasons. Viewers will also find hits such as Modlitba za vodu (Prayer for Water), Masopust (Carnival), Dušičkové rozjímání (All Souls' Day Contemplation) and Sonet o lásce a modrém portugalu (Sonnet about Love and Blue Portugal).
