Moravian Hellas

It certainly is an interesting documentary that presents at times quite controversial ideas, complemented by an incredibly intriguing visual, where Karel Vachek plays with both image and sound, with what we truly see and what we should see. I don't want to claim that it is a direct indictment of futile effort, but it is definitely a film that makes you feel that something is wrong. It is up to you to reflect on whether what is wrong is how much people try, even though they know it will end, or if it lies in letting something like this come to an end. The Saudka brothers add the right surreal touch, which is already given by the very boundary between documentary and feature film. (06/01/2014)
