Director Karel Kachyňa's bittersweet comedy adds a touch of melodrama. Jiří Hubač's screenplay presents a story of a fifty-year-old retarded woman who is looked after by her sister, a rather prim doctor. Their gradual approachment leads the caregiver to a gracious reevaluation of her own approach to life. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)
Recensie (1)
This was Jiřina Bohdalová's last big opportunity in film for many years to come. There was no totalitarianism and the rules of normalization didn't apply, yet Bohdalová was rewarded for her acting performance (paired with Jiřina Jirásková) in the following years with only a couple of fairy tales and one supporting role. That's not much, is it?
