Československý armádní film

A troupe of young women on post-apocalyptic earth are lead around by a mistress born before the war, eventually stumbling into the company of a lonely old man.

Oldrich is the runt of his village, beaten by his father, bullied by the other boys. But he has imagination on his side, and a wiry toughness they can’t defeat. The village is in turmoil, because the Nazi occupiers have just retreated and the Red Army is advancing. Oldrich dodges amid the mayhem and panic, taking his share of blows but always managing to stay one step ahead. Beautifully shot and darkly ironic, Karel Kachyna’s forgotten masterpiece jumbles reality, memory and fantasy to capture the intensity and confusion of childhood in a war zone.

Everything Ends Tonight is a Czech movie.

One of the immediate consequences of the "temporary stay" of the Warsaw Pact troops on the territory of Czechoslovakia. The garrison of the Czechoslovak People's Army was suddenly transferred to Slovakia in the autumn of 1968, and a unit of the occupying Soviet Army was deployed in its place. The age-old symbiosis of soldiers with the adjacent village is completely disrupted, distrust and fear are beginning to spread among the villagers.

A satirical military "Fashion Show" instructing Czechoslovak soldiers how and how not to dress.

A poetic melodramatic documentary inspired by the death of Jan Palach. The footage from the funeral is accompanied by the words of Maxim Gorky's Old Woman Izergil (On the Flaming Danek's Heart), sung by Kühn's mixed choir, solos by Milada Sýkorová and Jiří Němeček. The apotheosis of a leader who sacrificed himself to save his people, warning of the cowardice of the crowd.
