film reviews | movies | features | BRWC A Tribute To Vera Chytilova

The Czech Centre, Dazed & Confused, Picturehouse and Second Run DVD present a double bill of Vera Chytilová’s anarchic and wildly satirical masterpiece and Martin Šulík’s documentary portrait Věra Chytilová from the Golden Sixties series in tribute to director Věra Chytilová (2 February 1929 – 12 March 2014), pioneer of the Czech New Wave. Introduced by Dazed & Confused film critic Carmen Gray.

Date: 13 April 2014, 6 pm
Venue: Hackney Picturehouse, 270 Mare St, London E8 1HE

DAISIES: “Extremely funny, witty and expertly-fashioned film… displays a remarkable control of filmic language, special effects, rhythm and sight gags” – Variety



Věra Chytilová (1929 – 2014 ) was one of the foremost directors of the 60s Czech New Wave. Her career from the start was daring and original with an ability to observe ordinary, everyday things in an unconventional way and from unexpected angles, revealing the moral problems of contemporary society. A highly original and uncompromising filmmaker, Chytilová directed almost 30 films, both fictions and documentaries.
