About the film

What it’s about

Andula lives in a small Czech town dominated by a shoe factory, where women far outnumber men. She meets Milda, a young musician from Prague, and they spend a night together. He treats it as a casual encounter and leaves. When she receives no word from him, she travels to Prague and shows up at his parents' apartment, surprising them all.

What hooks you

Miloš Forman directs Hana Brejchová as Andula and Vladimír Pucholt as Milda. The film won a Bodil Award for Best European Film and received Oscar and Golden Lion nominations.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys bittersweet character studies, understated humor, and the naturalistic style of the Czech New Wave.

Trivia

  1. In 1967, Czechoslovakia officially submitted the film for the Academy Award in the Best Foreign Language Film category.
  2. The screen debut of Milada Ježková (1910-1994), who played Milada's mother, portrayed by Vladimír Pucholt. Miloš Forman (1932-2018) and fellow screenwriters Václav Šašek, Jaroslav Papoušek (1929-1995), and Ivan Passer (1933-2020) were riding a bus somewhere and discussing the future screenplay when Ježková, standing nearby, overheard them and laughed at what she heard. The filmmakers noticed her charm and offered her a role in the future film.
