Czech, English subtitles
Two young women respond to the moral decay and corruption around them with anarchic pranks, from lighting fires indoors to trampling an opulent feast in heels to cutting each other up with scissors.
Věra Chytilová’s Dadaist masterpiece of feminist hedonism rejects social and sexual conventions.
‘There’s a sense of ideas boiling over in this brashly bonkers tale of two young women, both named Marie, and the youthful havoc they unleash in a world gone stale or mad.’ – BFI
Available as a 3-film European Avant-Garde pass with Pierrot Le Fou and Diva. Learn more.
