Sedmikrasky / Daisies (1966), Cesta: Portret Vdery Chytilove / Journey: A portrait of Famed Czech New Wave Film Director Vera Chytilova (2004) DVD9

A truly original film yet a distinctly dated product of its time and place, Czech director Vera Chytilova's mid-sixties cause celebre follows the non-linear adventures of two young girls through a series of nihilistic, absurdist episodes randomly sequenced in a quasi-experimentalist stream-of-consciousness, breathing the satirical tradition of Bohemian literature into utterly modern pop-art and subversive aesthetics.

Full of arch optical tricks, surrealist/collagist non-sequiturs and a simultaneous fascination and derision for transgression, Daisies could not have been made at any other place or time other than in the mid-1960s Czechoslovakia.
