The Greatest Wish / Největší přání
Jan Špáta / Czech Republic / 1990 / 85 min. /
35mm
In 1964, Jan Spata created a documentary called "The Greatest Wish,"
about the desires of the young generation. It was a time of political liberalization
and thus also a time of beautiful visons and desires. In 1969, the film
was banned. Jan Špáta came back to his "Greatest Wish" in 1990
and created a feature documentary comparing that period with events of 1989.
He even found some people interviewed in 1964 and asked them to speak again,
25 years later.

What the Women are Dreaming About /
O čem sní ženy
Olga Sommerová / Czech Republic / 1999 / 60 min. /
video
Olga Sommerová decided to film her conversations with several middle aged
women because of her conviction that as human beings, men and women are
absolutely different from each other, and therefore the experiences of women
living in this world of patriarchs have quite specific characteristics that
should be voiced out loud. Thus is the origin of this captivating testimonial,
where maturity confronts the girlish dreams of long ago, and optimism is
interwoven into difficult lives.
